Yeah you would be right, but then Jacksons Beemer is the old Prillalux one. Prillaux was at Brands yesterday and he also would have with him a very good idea of how that car goes around Brands, as that car was raced around Brands last year. Granted it went around the GP track and the race was in the rain but I'm sure there was still a lot of very useful data for Matt to take with him. That and he's obviously a very good up and coming driving talent with nothing to lose and everything to gain from doing well early on.

Yeh that is a very good point, i guess we will get a better picture over the next few rounds how quick the car is but i still expect him to be top 6 at least.

please remember that mats beamer is 30kg lighter than both rac beamers due to their sequential boxes drawing a weight penalty and colin did put his on pole so mats was not quicker
after race one where colin also ran faster than mat he aquired 36kg of ballast therefore now 66 kilos heavier and still finished 2 in race 2 he was also running 3 rd still ahead of matt in race 3 till he was forced off
so on cold facts u cant make that statement
someone will no doubt have the actual weights from race 3 to hand but i think ull find colin was the heaviest on the grid and toms not a million miles behind
