Chilton(s)

After his lacklustre 2007 season most thought Tom would turn his attention to ALMS or similar, especially now Neal has been confirmed alongside champ Gio for '08. However Tom's recent comments in Autosport indicate he's set to carry on driving on these shores next year, either with a "3rd manufacturer" or with another team given that he has a big sponsor behind him. Word is Arena are building some S2000 Ford Focuses, and if true they wouldn't be making that investment unless there was serious budget behind the project - either works backing or serious sponsor (/Rich Daddy) cash. The suggestion is Tom might team up with his younger brother Max, who hasn't exactly been stunning in single-seaters thus far in his career. Maybe he'll feel better with a roof over his head.

2007 DVD


The 2007 review DVD will be available next month - Duke say the 26th, other retailers reckon it's the 19th. Best price seen so far is £10.99 including delivery from HMV.
Judging by the preliminary cover art Duke obviously betted on Plato winning the championship, but expect to see Gio's green and red VX machine adorning the sleeve by the time it drops through your letterbox.
