The 2011 season of racing has come to an end, having been mighty good fun once again.
In the BARC NW Sports Saloon Car Championship I have won Class A for the second year running, overall I finished 6th which is 2 spots down on last year, however I had a few dramas along the way and guess thats the way it goes !!
I managed a win at one of the Anglesey rounds and came close to wins on a few other occasions !
One other highlight of the year was the CSCC Modsports & Special Saloon Revival meeting at Mallory Park which brought back together a fantastic collection of Special Saloons, Modsports and Thunder Saloons, I managed a couple of wins but was pushed all the way by Peter Stevens in his mighty 6 litre Carlton.

SIMON'S INTRODUCTION
I have been racing cars since 1985, firstly in Hillman Imp Special Saloons and then from 1994 in the Esprit V8 silhouette special racer.
In 1994/5 I raced the Esprit powered by a 3.5 litre Rover V8 engine, in 1997 the Esprit was fitted with a 5.0 litre and later with a 6.0 litre Wildcat V8 engine producing approx 450 BHP......
In 2009 I fitted a very special 5.5 litre Chevrolet LS6 V8 from a Daytona Sports prototype ...this produces 575 bhp and weighs less than the Wildcat V8s and so it is mighty quick !!
This site is full of information, photos and race movies of me in the Esprit and Imp, including details of my special Chevy LS6 engine and my previous Wildcat V8 engines.
Also on the site is information about the BARC NW Centre Sports Saloon Car Championship, including Movies, Photo Gallery and Championship Reviews.
Please look around the site, there is plenty on it.
Why not add the site to your favourites list and visit regularly so you can keep up to date with the latest news.
I hope you enjoy my site ...... Simon
