jackson is 2 years more experienced than jonny in BTCC so of course he is going to be right on the pace. Mat and Jonny could be a dream team for dave bartrum
as for me taking off the blinkers??? what because I have faith in the guy, because I know he has it in him to be a winner in BTCC. Too many pundits and internet frothers had him built up too much last season, he delivered a very good rookie year and this could have been the year to move forward |

Yes but we can also compare Jackson's 2007 season and Adam's 2009 season. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of Adam's and would like to see him get a second chance, but he's not the same class of driver as Jackson (from what we've seen).

I'm expecting at least two. I wouldn't quite put it as "Near Certain" yet bt maybe I'm wrong. If its done deal for the 2nd one why hasn't it been announced yet when Tom's effectively has been? I certainly wouldn't be surprised to see it listed as TBA on the entry list in a weeks time!

Autosport are saying Plato is doing the driving today, and Alex MacDowall tomorrow.

Nice work Ben and the other AMD boys, that car looks awesome. You guys must be proud seeing it on the track. Since us VAG fans have had nothing to shout about since the demise of the SEAT Leons, i'm looking forward to seeing this out at Thruxton.
oh, and the first pic of page 5 of your blog, how much were you guys dribbling over the RS500 in the same garage as you? |
