JR Ewing should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Not just sticking up for Mattray, I was disappointed there were so few.
Is it the licence status (Int'l?) or that they think they can't win which would be a real shame.
For me, just saying you competed is an accomplishment.
I am certainly not anti-FF1600 (having owned more of them than Zetecs) and the King of Kents wa sa fantastic race. In fact one of my old cars was in the final.

National FF1600 series - sounds like the old SuperClassics which (sadly) died out.

My ideal (and realistic) Festival would be four heats of Zetecs and four heats of Kents and tell the Zips, T-cars and saloons to feck off!

The whole of pro FF (Zetec) is rather sick but I don't think it's to do with the engine - the whbole car has become too complex. Go back to non-adjustable dampers, or even spec damper/springs and harder or treaded tyres and bingo - sorted...
