DRIVERS’
QUOTES OF
THE YEAR
STACEY DENNIS,
ALFA ROMEO 147 CHAMPIONSHIP
“I love every season I do with my Alfa Romeo 147 in the
Alfa Romeo Championship. It’s a dream come true. This
is only my fourth so far and I still have lots to learn
on a small budget. It would never have been possible
without the help of so many people to get me to each
race. Harry, Gary and Paul at Bianco Auto Developments
do such a fantastic job of supporting me and my car,
putting up with my tears and frustration on low days,
and being a part of making the high days happen. Also,
Dave Thompson of Thames Valley MOTs for the use of his
truck and Rob at Godfrey Auto Repairs for the support for
Zolder. My first weekend abroad has been the highlight
of my year so far. My racing family make every weekend
amazing; the support they offer is overwhelming. I’d also
like to thank Rob for cat sitting while I’m away! There
are too many names to list but each one of these people
and so many more make my hard work and dedication
worthwhile and every race weekend so special for me.
Thank you to all of you!”
FERGUS RYAN,
MAGNIFICENT SEVENS
“Many thanks to Andrew McMil-
lan, Simon Harding, Jason Bedford,
Joe Prime, Ross Doubtfire, Becky
and all the others at McMillan
Motorsport. A brilliant weekend in
Spa and a 5th place in the second
race wasn’t a bad result for my
first weekend back. Also, a special
mention to Richard Pursglove, Ian
Dyble and Keith Marchment for the
craic!”
IAN MUTCH,
#STARTATTHEBACK
“Lots of new faces in all series and
some quality drivers appearing. Brit-
ish motorsport at its best.”
BEN EDWARDS, JAVELIN
TRACKDAYS SPRINT SERIES
“Thanks again to the Javelin team
for an excellent day. Very happy that
my creaky old Westfield managed
14th overall and runner-up in class.
Congrats to Richard Hough on your
well-deserved win! Thanks also to
Mike Rawlings for not showing up
and allowing me some silverware for
this season!”
MIKE WILDS, BRITCAR
“P3 overall in the two-hour race
at Thruxton. Brilliant fun apart from
a left rear tyre failure flat out in 6th
gear approaching the right-hander
at Church. VERY SCARY! Pure luck
that I managed to save it and get it
back to the pit lane! Huge thanks to
FFCorsa for running the car so well,
and well driven by Anthony, bringing
the car home saving the tyres in the
second stint.”
ABBITT MOTORSPORT
DRIVERS - DAN ABBITT &
BEN ABBITT (BROTHERS)
“Trackday Championship is a
great series providing close racing
on some of the best circuits in
the UK. With the points system
and class structure everyone has
a chance at winning not only
individual races, but your class
or even the championship itself.
The racing is intense with clean,
constant action and with pit stops
adding another dynamic, the re-
sults are always close!”
DAVID TAYLOR,
MR2 SCOTTISH
CHAMPIONSHIP
“After a great 2015, this year so
far has been difficult with many
engine problems, including down
on power and my exhaust falling
off giving me a DNF. But roll on the
second half of the year and let’s
see what I can achieve.”
