Well, if there's a place as looks likely, I think we can have a car on the grid.

Engine to keep Max happy:

So, we're up to £75k and just need a driver without scruples that will do whatever is needed to get a result. Now, Schumy has retired so who does that leave???????

Y, did he go. We will never know :(

Don't worry Harsha, we need a jackman. Well, actually, we need a jack and a man so you will have to do both. Feeling strong? :D

I would put myself forward as a possible candidate for the position of driver (past glories include 2008 Class D1 winner of the Torbay Motor Club Hillclimb/Sprint Championship). However I've already got an outline agreement with another team.

And I'll be number two driver. Having been out of the cockpit for ten years you'll have no trouble from me - except when I blame the press.

Well, as long as you don't mind being subcontracted out as Flavio's jock strap then you're in ;)

Now all we need in Uncs to win one of his famous big money golf matches to sponsor this outfit and we're off :)

Bit slow on Pit girls this time around. Must be losing my touch :(

Count me in Knockie old chum, I'm a qualified engineer and a pretty good liar by all accounts.. :p

I do have conditions however... ioan must be granted the role as press officer, i can't think of a better man on this planet... ;)

Good idea about ioan but can't take you on as a lying mechanic. By suggesting ioan would be the ideal person at spinning our herioc achievements in the press, you have proved what a poor liar you are.

Now, if you had of suggested his temprement, tact and fairness makes him an ideal ambassador to the FOTA / FIA working committee then you were in!

Ah, um, well, er, we were hoping to get someone a little more, how do you say, er, competitive :eek:

Tell you what, if Mr Jan (or anyone else) can't do it, we'll let Jacques know ;)

If not, how about another little import. Vic Lee got away with it for long enough :D (Is he out yet :erm: )

Are you forgetting your ex racing driver now, ahem?
With more experience gained in these last few years (in crap cars) I should slot in nicely. :s

Although...the FA1 maybe a cheaper option (costs n'all that), and the Cossie would be a snug fit :s mokin:

Well, you couldn't be any worse than JV but what would the lovely Mrs Storm say? Wouldn't want to upset the Lady by endangering her old man ;)

I've got US$17 to sponsor your new team Knockie. Does that get me one side of the car :p :

I can put my hand up for test driver, having been an Australian Champion Rally driver in my class in my 3 Cyl Charade :)

Also can bring 15 Euro in sponsorship, enough to put a very small sticker on the car or buy some sunscreen for me :)

Sorry but you're overqualified. Can't win the championship too easily or people will ask questions. Things have tightened up since the Tag/Schumy days ;)

Can I put myself forward.

When we were young, my Sister suggested that my ideal job would be a left hand glove sorter in a right hand glove factory....

Perhaps I could be in management.... :D

Ok Knockie, we need a list of whose in and whose out. Following the proper FIA vetting proccess of course ;)

Apologies for a late application, but I could be a race strategist in that very new Knock-on team. :D Don't worry - I know the finances are tight in the team, so I won't order a driver to crash, which could bring up costs. :)

Well if I get a slot as a driver you won't need to order me to crash - that just comes with the deal! ;)

I can supply the drinks. I have a nice little drink concern in the backwoods. All product is well aged for at least 24 hours. More if I can't shake the survellience team. If need be for more power it can be added to the fuel as long as tech doesn't test it.
Guaranteed to make a driver go faster. Maybe not drive faster, but go faster.
Comes in clear unmarked bottles.
