"Hello TGTT, remember a few days ago I mentioned, I have been sponsored by the local Auto Trader, well this week an article about me is on the magazine, I cant believe I am a mini mini star in Guatemala ahhahahaa people have called me telling they saw me on a mag, and my grandma even asked if I was a going to leave my job, and travel ahahahhaa, I wish. Here are the pics, of the mag, sorry they are actual pics of the mag, I dont have digital copies yet.

Now I do feel pressured to perform...... Im very very nervous."

Update 24-7-2007

"Hello, sorry for the very late update, but I have been quite busy. This past weekend has been the 3rd race of the season, and I finished 4th, I am still pissed, because I was running 2nd, when the mate in 3rd, bumped me and then crashed into me, making me loose 2 positions..... and he was allowed to do that by race officials....... anyhow, I have finished 4th twice and one 3rd place, that has me tied for 2nd place in the championship, but the mate in 1st is gone...... There are 4 races left and hopefully we can close the gap...... Il leave you with some pictures of the event....

Update 24-7-2007

Hello, I just re- registered, I have been out of the internet for a while, and just found out there is a new TGTT, anyhow, for those of you that remember me, I got a sponsorship from AutoTrader in my country, and after a season of ups and downs, the biggest up just came yesterday!

I won my fisrt race, and I could not have picked a better race to win, hahahaaha I won the 100km race in El Salvador, its a single race with 4 classes, GT1, corvettes, camaros, porsches, GT2 silvias, VW GTi, GT3 highly tuned hondas, and super street the same as GT3 but with radials.....

And i did not only win my class but I won overall!!! The big cars had no end of troubles with the rain, while the little GT soldiered on through the pouring rain and I was lapping the field every 3 laps! I got enough of a lead, when the rain ceased that even though the big cars gained some laps back it was not enough to beat me ahahaahaa, I was dying in there as I was almost running out of gas..... I spun out 4 times.... oh my it was eventful.... but I am happy as can be! I still cant believe it....

Sorry for the long read.... here are the pics

Nice work man, should be proud and your making us GT owners proud, would be interested if you could share some/all the spec of the engine? are you still on a CT9 or on a upgrade?

Also i wish we had more chance's for this sort of competition in the UK, suppose it will come in future years.
