New website sponsor, Holden Plant Hire Limited, have been added to the LINKS/CONTACTS page.  Team Holden consists of brothers Daniel (#161), being the eldest, and Lee (#266). The Holden Plant Hire website has a page dedicated to Daniel's 'long' racing career and achievements, which is well worth reading!  Lee, only 18 years old, has time on his side to match his brothers success.  He started the ball rolling with his first heat win last year and with, no doubt, more success to come!

update - 14th April, 2008

HEDNESFORD HILLS on Sunday brought out five late starters to the season.  Bob Clayfield (#66) and John Hudson (#65) both dusted the cobwebs off their cars.  Des Chandler's brand new car, reminiscent of his F1 livery, made its first competetive appearance.  Paul Smith took to the seat of the Chevy Coupe shared with Peter Oakley for his first meeting as Race No.110, (Peter races the same car using No.10) and Race Car Direct introduced Kev Hughes, from Burgess Hill, in the lease hire '34 Ford Sedan.
Russ Bull (#100) took the chequered flag in heat one but was disqualified following post race checks because the car was 1/16" (corrected 27.04.08)  too long and Darren Smith (#76) was given the win.
Mark Dews (#78) got away from Martin Heath (#242) and Ian Hales (#6) in heat two for a victory.
The same three were locked in battle for the Midland Championship feature final, which saw Martin win through for the 2008 title. 
The third heat was a smooth run out and trouble free win for Paul Fiore.
FULL RESULTS HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE RACE REPORTS PAGE.

NEWS FROM ROUND 4 AT BOVINGDON TODAY - It was no surprise that Richard Poulter (#98) took his first race win from the front row in heat one, despite the pressure laid on by Pete Amas (#33) through three restarts!  Peter Blundell (#156) deserved the win in heat two with a nifty move on Dave Baker (#5) in the penultimate lap and Russ Bull (#100) bagged two excellent wins in heat three from Blundell and dominated Ian Hales (#6) for a win in the final.
