THANK YOU

This site is set up to thank all those who have done so much to help me get into Motor Racing at this late stage in life supported me throughout , enabled me to have so much fun and left me with such a big grin on my face.

I hope also that other visitors to the site will enjoy it and that it will encourage some people to do what I did and do what they have always wanted to do before it is too late !

It is with great pleasure that I thank “O’Briens Irish Sandwich Bars” and  “BB’s Coffee and Muffins” for their support to Team O’Briens Racing for the 2004 - 2008 seasons. Their support was a major factor in the continuance of Team O'Briens Racing and I hope that perhaps this  year we will be  able to find another sponsor for 2009.

In the UK, I would like to thank the Aston Martin Owners Club (AMOC) for organizing such competitive racing at challenging circuits and with a variety of interesting people.

I am enjoying my participation in the Heritage Grand Touring Car Challenge (HGTCC) series in the UK in the Aston Martin and sometimes the Mini Cooper S. This series is organized by Roger and Kate Bennington and Stratton Motor company and is a challenging competition with some very well known names and cars competing. The series is so popular that it is booked out this year and has grids of over 40 cars.   

It is with the greatest of pleasure that The Masters  Racing Series have invited up to 6 Aston Martin Lightweights to race with them in the “Stars of the 70’s” series in their races throughout Europe. I will be racing with them for the first time at Brands Hatch on 24th May 2008, so watch this space for some results. Charlie Kemp will Co Drive with me.

Charlie Kemp for his friendship, advice and encouragement in my racing technique as well as co- driving with me in the Heritage series. Also for his recent one on one tuition at Croft, which will I am sure translate into improved times !
