although far good
From where started, I think it is too far down to try and win a championship at the end of the season, although we had a very good first race at Mondello and scored some good points.
closely effort goes good improve people putting season sure though works
It's a good team though that works very closely and very well together, and all those people putting that effort in, then I'm sure we will improve dramatically from where we are now as the season goes on.
confident good plate question six step
There is no question about that. We do have to step up to the plate in that area. I think we are confident and if you look at the Under-17 Boys, six of them qualifying in the 100. That is a very good sign.
bits car good hoped job pieces stage
Unfortunately we don't have all the bits and pieces on the car that we had hoped to have by this stage so we've got to make as good a job as we can with what we have and we feel we are doing well with that at the moment.
forward good happy ideas move team
I am very happy with it and working with this team is really good. They all have the same ideas and want to move forward and do a good job.
aims best
The team's aims are do to the best we can basically.
effort forward hard moving putting results trying
The team is very enthusiastic - everyone is trying hard to do their best, and everyone is putting a lot of effort in to moving forward and getting the right results and it's a very good, close-knit team.
I would like to become champion, but I'm realistic about it.
It is expensive to start from scratch though.
aspects full looking meets technical ways
We take full responsibility, but we are always looking at ways that the technical aspects of the meets could flow.
best developing enjoy moving people
I enjoy what I do - developing cars, moving forwards and getting the best out of them. And yes, a lot of people would like to do what I do.
setting
I don't think it's so much of a disadvantage setting up from scratch.
I'd like to see us improving on what we had last year.
projects workshop
We've had to set a workshop up; we've had to equip the workshop and everything else. But all that equipment is there now and whatever projects they want to use it for in the future.
