I don't know as much about him or his business as you do of course , but how many 17-year olds can afford to drive a Mitsubishi Evo VI ? And not on a national level , but on a WRC level ( Rally GB 2002 ) ?

Don't forget Ford focus WRC season in BRC when he was 17 or 18..

We spoke about this some years ago J_K. Meeke has never spoken to Jouhki so I'm not sure how he managed to complete a "rigorous mental test" unless he did when watching Meeke on TV :) Don't know about Wilks.

Speaking of Meeke he must be the first driver in a very long time to earn a WRC seat without a cheque book or a high-falutin' manager who can pull strings and offer money.
I wish there were more drivers offered seats without an invoice.

We all do Noel, we all do. But unfortunately we live in the real world. At least ... most of us do.

Can we get back to saying how much better the DS3 will be than the Fester please?

Hi Don good answer here. :up:
Why so many here want to know what managers does!
Boys go to rallies and look at the cars, don´t forget to read the forum signature...of Don Jippo!!!! ;)
There are two rules for success
1. Never tell everything you know.

Managers do not tell how that they work overtime himself and certainly not with how much money. As on the most of forums many young people think that they know everything what a manager does.

I know this is sillyof me especially as I've reported this thread but I'll bite........


Then why are you always slagging off Sebastien and Citroen?

I've reopened this thread on the condition that it remains on topic!

So JM-L and Mikko have put more then 1200km on the Fiesta WRC last week...
