I am looking for volunteers to write race reports this year.
Here is a list of events and venues:
http://www.morganchallenge.co.uk/Pages/ ... endar.html
John Bevan has kindly volunteered to write the report for VSCC Silverstone on 23rd April but I urgently need a volunteer for 1st April.
You can email me via the Challenge web site Contact page:
http://www.morganchallenge.co.uk/Pages/contact_who.html
I am sure that my other usual reporters will be clamouring for the chance!
Michele Bailey, Alan and Dominic House, Bob Bull, Leigh Sebba, Simon Scott (more time on your hands now Simon!), Greg Parnell.
If there are other budding journalists out there who would like to send me reports please don't be too shy to volunteer!

Quite frankly only a Fool would volunteer to write a report for Snetterton.

Polar Foil
Keeping Hold of Your Energy
Have you ever been involved in a difficult project, or had to work with a colleague who moans about everything? If so, you'll know what an energy-sapping experience it is.
You're working hard and managing your time efficiently, when an unplanned task or problem appears from nowhere and stops you in your tracks. Or Moaning Mandy (no offence to all hard-working Amandas out there) stops by your desk and runs through a bunch of complaints, about anything not being able to find a space in the parking lot this morning, to what the boss said earlier. By the time she's gone you've lost your focus and your drive, and it takes you at least half an hour to get back up to speed again.
Since these external events are outside your control, you can't stop them happening. But the good news is that you CAN insulate yourself from their energy-sapping effects. What you need is "Polar Foil".
Polar Foil is a part-physical, part-mental technique that allows you to retain your energy in the face of the most severe external chills. You can use it yourself, or wrap it round your whole team.

Thanks very much Michele.
Greg Parnell has also volunteered to write a report for 1st April so maybe you two could liaise on it?
As for Polar Foil I will be interested to see what he/she can bring to the pit wall.....

I will leave to you both to sort out who does which report.
A few candid paddock shots are always welcome as are on track photos.

Snetterton 1st April
I have two volunteers: Michele Bailey and Greg Parnell will each report on one race.
Silverstone 23rd April
John Bevan has volunteered to write the report for this race.
Many thanks to Greg, Michele and John for volunteering.
That leaves:
Brands 29th May
Oulton 10th June
Cadwell 22nd July
Cadwell 23rd July
Silverstone 5th August
Donington 10th September
Snetterton 30th September
Come on you lot, there must be others out there who can put pen to paper or fingers to keyboard and produce some literary masterpiece. You all benefit from the series - why not put something back? [-X
