JTR could run Sam Brabham, who's been impressive. Fortec have a driver signed for next season...

Age old problem though isn't it! No shortage of top talent out there. Drivers such as Dan Cammish, Scott Malvern, Wayne Boyd (Its a long list) have all proved they have what it takes talent wise in junior single seaters but it's finding the funding to make the next step and even with the proposed revisions it's a massive hike in budget.
In the 80's there was a successful scheme called "Racing For Britain" and a lot of the drivers that were beneficiaries of that scheme went on to have great professional careers and many are still making a very nice living from the sport now. It's a shame now that they have made it that they are not so interested in seeing the scheme re-launched!
