So yeah man no big podium news as yet but its a work in progress and we all have to start somewhere. Im very lucky to have these guys giving me a go .

We do however have our fuel and mods winning the autumn challenge including TQ at the off roads in the truck series. Still waiting on results from Penrith but a team driver went really well there with Mods and Fuel, And a MM client in Queensland with a CMB and our new fuel going great. And we have 2 team drivers in Miami going great over there with the Mods and Cooper Fuels.

Here are the lap times for the top ten in Open Nitro.

Yeah Bad Luck for Matt Kellet, ended up finishing 17th after showing promising signs in qualifying, and poor griffo ended up nearly last, 3rd last.
