Currently stuck waiting for a meeting so thought i'd fill my time with something useful...

What are your thoughts?

Supercar / Div 1 driver of the year - Steve Hill (personally think he deserved crown)

Supermod / Supernat driver of the year - Jamie Bird (drove well all season)

Stockhatch / Pro1600 driver of the year - Julian Godfrey (kept lynchy on his toes all year then held it together when it mattered)

Minicross driver of the year - Andy Lee (had shelley beaten until he moved class)

Revivals driver of the year - Dean Jones (great all season)

Most entertaining driver to watch - Dean Jones (super sideways always)

Best race to watch - Supermodified A final Lydden Hill August (great to watch, but not sure I would have liked to race in it)

Most unlucky driver - Liam Doran (liam was mega fast all season but the RS200 let him down a few times, coupled with a couple of crashes meant he didnt get his first win, but I don't think it will be far off)

I'll go along with Steve Hill being the pick of the crop although I have to admit I was pleased Lawrence won the title with the 6R4.

Good to see Jamie Bird taking the supermodified crown too - that Clio is the best sounding of the supermods by a country mile and is an absolute rocketship off the line. Up until this year I'd had doubts about Jamies ability to cope with pressure during a race but I think he stepped up a level this season and was a thoroughly deserving winner.

Stockhatch - Julian Godfrey. The car is looking a bit "tired" but he was as good as ever.

I can't really comment on the Minicross or Revivals classes as I haven't seen them this year (although Dean Jones is worth a mention for his brilliant car choice ;) ).

Sorry Hal have to dissagree.... Best Race By Far Was The SuperFinal At The Same Event... Steve, Pat or Olie Could Have Won.. And The Smile On Theyre Faces Afterwards Said It All... Excellent Racing...

I have to agree Jamie Lee was awsome this year, really showed top pace and that car is amazingly quick!

What about Dominic Yates wining Revivals C still only 16 years old in his first season and not taken his road test then i might be bit biased Mike Yates.
