David someone has asked whether or not you've ever driven a gearbox kart, and what you thought of it?
Yeh I did at Silverstone actually (laughs) I drove Mark Hynes�s 250 Superkart around Silverstone for a track test, it was bloody quick and very impressive. I used to go and watch a lot of long circuit races before I was karting because my dad sponsored a couple of guys, so I�ve been to all those old races.. Zandvoort, the Silverstone kart grand prix when it used to happen... Cadwell and Oulton park and god knows all sorts of places so I�ve seen a lot of those. It was a great formula at the time, I think it�s kind of died away now though hasn�t it, which is a shame.
DC's certainly gone up in my estimations, he called me from his house in Monaco where he was on his one day off with his kid before flying in to Silverstone, and still gave me a good 25 minutes on the phone!
