Jason at Mondello

[Dudley]

Just to let all you MG fans know......
Jason Hughes WILL be competing at Mondello Park, and I'll tell you what..look out for his first podium.
He's slim, trim, and the car is Hot! Hot! Hot!
Remember last years race...well this year will be even better.

[Jonathan McLeod]

He's slim, trim,

I'll believe it when I see it :p

He might fall through the podium :D Seriously, its great to see another car out their, and especially Jason, he's one of the friendliest drivers in the paddock from my experience.

[psq43]

I certainly hope he can make it back, he may be off the pace of the top guns with outdated machinery, but its another to swell the ranks wich is good and may also give us a slightly better back end scrap between himself, the lexi' and Proctor! With the Alfa heading for Croft, and the bio-eth Astra due too, this is all good news in the current "bleak" situation our sport is in.

I'll believe it when I see it :p
How does the saying "Eat your words" sound to you. Pity you can't be more encouraging :mad:

Obviously not an MG fan!! Ah well, I suppose it takes all sorts!

Get used to it, he's like it all the time :rolleyes:

[fisico04]

great news, lets hope for a good result from him.

[Jonathan McLeod]

Get used to it, he's like it all the time :rolleyes:

It was just a harmless joke about his size in comparison to most other drivers.

I am fan of Jason, and think that he should do a good job at Mondello.

[racingdick]

does anyone know 'why' he isnt doing the full season?

[Casper]

I would venture to say that the reason he isn't doing the whole season, is purely the lack of a major sponsor.
jason dug deep into his own pocket last year, in order to do the whole season, but no money pot is bottomless!
So anyone who knows of 1/2 a million quid lurking around needing a home , get in touch, and next year will see a Hughes car out for the whole season.
Money is very tight everywhere just now.

Go and get a sense of humour then come back.

Thing is that money would be much better invested elsewhere, harsh maybe, but ultimately true.

Why?? Jason is as likely to attract as much publicity as anyone else, with the increased TV coverage I think it would be good value for money, Jason tries as hard as anyone else out there, and if last year was anything to go by is very popular with many MG fans

Good luck Jason, hopefully you will be able to do at least one other round later in the year.

[Thommofan]

Good News! :D

because, if going by last year's form, he will be near the back.

Why put big money into a smaller team if it won't be aired as much as a bigger team.

Look at Sureterm, got fed up with getting so little coverage with GA last year and went to MG and probably got as much coverage with them in two meetings as they did all season with GA.

another car for Fiona to play with and maybe beat? Go girl

[dazzazeppelin]

Great to see another MG on the grid just shame about the livery :(

I can tell you, that all things being equal, Jason will be racing at Knockhill.

nice one will be great to see another car at the best meeting of the year

[BTCC2]

But at Croft he said "Yes you can see me next weekend at Mondello where the car went well last year" he said nothing about Knockhill

but fingers crossed anyway

Not the case today, a really good mid field showing from Jason beating works cars and consistantly scoring points in all three races, also some clean drives, not bad for a man coming in half way through the season.

[AlexC]

Very impressed with his performances today.... excellent Jason

[AlexC]

But at Croft he said "Yes you can see me next weekend at Mondello where the car went well last year" he said nothing about Knockhill

but fingers crossed anyway

But.... he didn't not say did he?

[Croft fan]

Well done.
He had 3 good races today, showed he had a lot of pace.

Welcome back, great to see him there.

I think Dudley has the inside track on any news of Jason.
IMHO Jason drove better yesterday than at any time last year. If he can reproduce it at Knockhill it would be great. He is a gentleman and a thoroughly good bloke. Spoke to him often last year and gave him a gentle ribbing which he took in good grace. His team are very friendly too so it would be an asset to the paddock if they are there.

Of course, having another MG on the track is just a bonus but it did seem to inspire Rob Collard to greater things.

As I said in a previous note, she was a little dot in Jasons rear View Mirror

[Dudley]

Go and get a sense of humour then come back.
I don't need a sense of humour.......Jason has one for me, He laughed all the way round Mondello!!! :D

[Dudley]

I'll believe it when I see it :p
Well......did you see it??? :D
Did you believe it???

[Reidy_fan]

Dudley, you enjoy beating Fiona at Mondello for once she has the experience it wont just be Jason she is leaving behind but Kaye, Picky and Hines. Go Girl :cool:
