Goat Boy has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!

Yes our races are for fun, but at least we can usually field two decent grids, each with more than 20 starters - sometimes up to 40, and we don't have problems attracting registrations either. Three more in today. One Porsche, one Alfa and one MG. No parity, but good racing with plenty of overtaking and close finishes.

For us it is still a sport, not a $$$ business.
Yes and I love that sort of racing too, Alfas are the coolest of course
