Next Race 28/09/2010
 After a discussion with all those involved with the team, we have decided to race one round of a different championship called Monoposto. Having tested recently, and evaluated our available budget. Despite the inconvenience of not having the track side tyre fitting support of Avon via BMTR , who are present in the paddock with the Jedi championship. It still works out cheaper to race with Mono and is more convenient as this will be a local event. Our budget is very tight for this event so all things considered this was the only option for us to race again this year. We know we will not be competitive in Mono with this engine. Karl would not like to suggest he would be right now even with the right engine with out more experience. However this is still good practice in this learning curve and reading between the lines - a reasonable result in an outright class with a weaker car still shows a drivers potential. With little race experience, we also feel racing in Mono offers a different challenge and are aware that other Jedi championship drivers also compete in Mono from time to time. We would like to thank the Formula Jedi factory championship, for their help and encouragement this year. If it was a simple choice we would race with Jedi as we feel it offers a more evenly matched competitive drivers championship . Depending on personal and business events in the next few months we will decide if we take next year out or only race some rounds again next year. Decisions are to include an engine update depending on what class or championship we aim for next year too. This car is underpowered for being competitive in Monoposto class with the 03 engine and this standard motor would even benefit from some mild head work engineering for Jedi's present club class, although that's not a substitute for experience and ability.We still have driver and set up to develop but we would like to be eligible and or mechanically competitive for a bigger class. At this stage we can not consider that investment with out looking at ways of doing it more cheaply i.e. undertaking the work our selves.... This would possibly render the car non eligible for Jedi's Factory championship which use controlled parts. So we still have some decisions pending over winter.
