[Lee Martin]

looks the same as the old one............

only clean.....

the released aero will be a whole new car....

99% of parts being made in house....

Looks like different centre driveshafts and a less bulky carbon fibre steering linkage. Congrats on the win aswell Lee, looks like the Aero is the real deal.

He's in the best position but others can win it, although I recon he will.

I know it's the wrong thread for this, but I "think" that only Lee M, Chris D or Darren B can now win the 4WD series.

Wow, wow, wow, wow...... I didn't call it off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That descision was already made before I had finished marshalling after the second leg. The race director Phil Channon had made the decision that it was unsafe to marshall on the slippery conditions.

Great drive in that first leg Phil

As for the championship.. If Chris was to win the remaining two rounds his score would be 520, and if Darren won them his would be 522. Whereas if Lee didn't improve on his current rounds scores his total would be 519.

Thanks Jimmy... I think that my car was fractionally quicker that Lee's, but there was one section of the track I just couldn't get right. After the table top I just could get tight enough aroudnthe left hander into the left hairpin. It just left me open to to many pass chances for others.

Still well chuffed with my qualifying, especially TQ'ing the last round.

[ashleyb4]

Sorry phil i thought you where one of the people who got a say if it was cancelled or not. But it was the right call. I still want to know what you will be driving in 2008 because ive heard rumours. and who will i ask for help if you change.

[jimmy]

Tamiya is awesome - I hope they make a 2WD also. But I can't see them ever having a proper team or anything, it will just be the odd one you see at Nationals. Great car though.
