If you really want to commit and see that he can go as far as he can possibly go, then yes. Back him as much as you can (sensibly, could all just end without result remember). My boss started just racing carts etc. ends up caterham European champion and owns his own racing prep team! Can go far with Motorsport! Just wish I got into the driving side of things earlier..

Just put 2 tyres on my Focus. A bit fiddly without a tyre machine but 2 tyre levers and brute force wins the day!

LOL Not an option anymore. MOT man was not impressed with my old tyres. I got my money out of them.

Well. America trip has fallen through - guess I may as well make light of it and go spend all the savings on mini stuff.

That's the plan. Just need to sort a garage to restore the mini. A mate has one near me but the roof leaks, not the best for a car already rusting lol

Unless you do plan. But you are planning to fail. But then you are planning but planning to fail. So if you didn't plan but failed anyway you would succeed in the plan you didn't make?
