Australia's top 10 "non-professional" drivers
Using the term lightly... "Non" professional driver for the sake of comparison only. I am meaning drivers who are either not being paid to drive OR any other driver outside either V8Supertaxies or Carrera Cup or GTP.
Thinking about drivers from other classes of motorsport be it local, State or National, from karts through to SportsSedans or Speedway... Who do you rate as someone of exceptional talent as a driver??? |

i have been to a couple of AMRS rounds this year and 2 that stand out in my mind are Brad Lowe and Luke Searle, they are fast and never appear to have bent cars

G'day guys, been reading for a little while & thought it time to get involved.
Not sure if he qualifies but what about Marcus Zukanovic ? He won both the Utes & Commodore Cup this year. |

Maybe, but he's becoming more of a professional, especially with the step up to the Development Series. Good to have you here Muznik.

I'd go Marcus Mayhem aswell....I think non-professional would be non-paid wouldnt it?? I thought his dad funded most of his racing?

Is there a difference between non-professional and unprofessional?
As for my pick... Tony Ricciardello has the speed in his head in that Alfa sports sedan, and somehow needs the right circumstance to release it in V8Supercar! Last edited by GTRMagic; 19 Dec 2006 at 11:35. |

keep em coming and we will create a list of all drivers nominated. GTRMagic will then set it up for us as a poll and we will each be entitled to a vote. If we can pull it off, we should get a good idea of who is Australia's best drivers outside the main game

Let me throw in a vote for John Martin (Formula Ford), Adam Proctor and Jason Cutts (Formula Vee). There are dozens out there who could do it, but circumstances mean they never will. Sad. Kramer |

Well I would vote for someone I know
but then that would be a bit biased now wouldn't it GTR?  Oh and Marcus also won the CAMS Motorsport Personality of the Year, so I better agree or Muznik may not talk too me again And of course Troy and Adam

Where do you start? There are a lot of good drivers in many different categories that probably deserve to be on a list like this.

Well seeing as your not allowed to vote for yourself in these poll's
Paul Kemal gets my number 1 vote.... and no.2 goes to.... Nick Percat who will be a great team mate next year! Read about it in AA and MSN with his signing for TWPG and BRD....out 2moro I believe!!! and look out for the Percat/Kipper draft in 07 maybe we should have an official 10 tenths poll for oz drivers not in V8s? |
