Yeah, I was Going over some data with Jack Goff who's one of our drivers and we both didn't realise who it was until we walked outside and saw his car looks like his brother may be driving the clios this season!

Half the field is run by us we have 7 cars although alot don't display our names, they display the drivers sponsors.

Last year we had Jack Goff, Dave Newsham, Phil Glew.. Their the only ones I can remember!

I would have guessed that the black Merc. was Hamiltons, it's so very desperate 'look-at-me' and 'I STILL have to prove something'.
The S2000 alongside looks so much more subtle tasteful and understated.

It depends where they are, it's a possibility, if I do I'll be sure to drop you a PM

edit: if you mean the actually qualy/racing etc which I'm sure you do I just mis-read I'll be at every round this season
