Sylvie got tantalizingly close in qualifying with a 50.40, and I reckon that on the right day, in the right conditions, he will beat Greensall's time.

(PS, don't get me wrong, 51.087 is a fantastic time)
Good on ya Peter, thanks for airing that!

Like your driver asessments and cant argue altough I've always felt that trying to get mad dog to drive smoothly would b like trying to get Murray Walker to do a commentary standing still ... just aint in the guys nature, so I dont think HE would b any quicker, whatever about a smoother driver ... talk nicely to your namesake, he might let u try!

BTW like your ad in racecarsdirect!
