Not quite sold, but new lease holder, with a distinct rallycross flavour.

Not if they install a new sprinkler system, but I think paddock tarmac is the first priority.

How about just settling for a complete rewire so the timing system and lights always work.

For me Pat Doran will always be linked with rallycrossing the Ford RS200

No, straight question. I'm not a RallyCross follower (well, not since 1974ish).

So what's the background to this deal, where's the £££ coming from, what track record has he got for running a business like this, etc.?

Regards

Jim

Really quick answer, just of the top of my head -does'nt Pat run a waste recycling business (paper?)
maybe it's
grosvenorwaste.co.uk, bought out earlier this year, for 81 million

Sounds convenient, Lydden would make an ideal landfill site.

A bit more searching uncovers a Mr Pat Doran, operations manager at GWM endorsing a bit of kit “Managing one of the largest recycling plants in the UK,..."
Grosvenor waste management seems to fit then.

So with 2+2=5 it looks as if he may have got out after getting a good price. And the money is being used for the racing community's benefit.
