Mike Newton, the car owner and driver used to be a marshal, before he started racing and he helps out the BMMC in anyway he can.

It even better than that!
There was a model of this car on sale in the MG display area and the Club stickers are on the model (very small though ) |

Mike is still a member of the BMMC (red 419) and long time sponsor of the club. The logo first appeared on the Saleen Mike raced in the British GT series and has continued on the LMS car. All the spare body panels carry the logo just in case they have an 'Istanbul'. If you want to know more about the car and the team I can recccomend this website :- http://www.mg-lola.com/ |
