Great news!

Look great in the Stobart colours - good that they are continuing to sponsor Mark. I thought I'd read somewhere at the beginning of the year that their association had ended.

Looks good!!!

As I assume that this deal is for the BRC does that mean his ITC campaign in the Impreza is over? Also who's backing Stuart Jones, is he also part of the Stobart deal?

I know that Mark really wants the ITRC title after missing out last year. Guess he'll be back in teh Impreza on teh Clark, Ulster and Manx....

[Sulland]

Any chance of an IRC round or two for Mark in the MG ?

[m.lowe]

Not sure on the Jones sponsorship Sal but all to be revealed todat thursday at the BRC launch

regarding IRC you never know, or it could be with someone else these are things being talked about

[Sulland]

Anyone who knows if MG has sold any S2000 cars ?

Heard any prices ?

[Mirek]

No, but one thing is clear. This car is completely new, probably No.3 :)

[m.lowe]

I think there are about 6 cars including built ones and cars under build
there are some cars privateer drivers will have

[Mihai]

That's too bad, I was waiting to see an Impreza N14 in Stobart livery. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g202/gr8link/orn/00.gif

Is this thing reliable enough for a successful BRC campaign ?

[Mirek]

MG retired due to technical reasons only once (the rest retirements were crashes), so I think it is.

Stuart Jones will be using an MG Sport S2000 on tomorrows Red Dragon Rally in South Wales, video footage after the event :)

Well done to keep the site up to date :)
Stuart's largely white colour scheme suits the car I think..
Mark's car seems to have a different rear wing..

[Mirek]

Are there any driver's comments?

[Darren Jones]

Also who's backing Stuart Jones, is he also part of the Stobart deal?


The MG Mark is using is the hire car from Bill Gwyne motorsport and stobart are be paying to hire the car ect, Stu is the works driver for MSD and he is testing and developing the car futher, they also have a new sponsor onboard Lico http://licowheels.com/

hope that helps

Did M. Higgings split with MG MSD etc?

[sal]

I think he is now doing a couple of IRC rounds with the car and going bag to TEG and a Mazda 323 (sorry new shaped Impreza) for the BRC
