Word from my local Chinese restaurant last night that a new consortium of businessmen from Beijing is looking to get hold of a Level 2 franchise for the 2004 season.

"With a home race we would be silly not to try" said team principal Wun Hung Lo.

With drivers of the calibre of Hoo Hung Hoo in Formula Hyundai and the emerging stars Sum Yung Boy and Wun Long Chin, there appears no shortage of steering talent in the country.

"From an engineering perspective, we are confident that we can find somebody amongst our population of 1.2 billion that can get a few extra noodles from a V8" he said.

Backers for the team are rumoured to include the Hang Sing restaurant from Blayney and a small laundry off a side alley in Dixon Street...
