The Crew
|
|
These are the people who make a team like this possible. They put in
personal time in areas as diverse as sponsor liaison, car preparation,
as well as the long and unpredictable commitments on race weekends from
steaming Darwin to frosty Winton. Apart from the glory of participation
and a sense of achievement from competing at this level the standard
pay rate is measured in Coopers Pale Ales. (no-one could complain about
being paid in Pales) It's a real pleasure to work with these
people.

Ian is the founder and principal of the team. Apart from getting to
drive the car Ian gets to sign t-shirts and entertain the crew while
they do all the work.

Rebecca Peters - Team manager
|
|
|
Rebecca looks after the team management at the track. 10 years of
commercial business management has given her the skills to deal with
all the eventualities of project management, sponsor liaison and people
management. Rebecca has been a fundamental driving force in the
creation and progression of this team and does the real organization of
every facet of our operation.

Garrett Gerhardt <</td>

|
|
Garrett made a huge effort in 2003 and traveled to all the race
meetings, which is a big effort. He's learnt a lot and I'm sure
will go far in motorsport. At the track Garret is also our liaison
point for all promotional girls, a job he handles with some passion.

Steve Davis

Steve joined our team in 2003 and has really mastered working on this
car after many years of drag racing expereience. We only had to teach
him that real race cars go round corners too. He has some great stories
frmm his drag racing days too. Steve works with us on quite a few
projects and is currently helping us to build patterns for casting
parts for our new Coswoth FVA engine.

Andrew helps out with the team mostly when we are racing n New South
Wales but has traveled farther afield in 2003. Andrew keeps his eye in
with a go-kart in between times.

Gil Gerhardt <</td>
|
|
|
Gil supports the team for races in Canberra and New South Wales. Gil
also is our chief marketing person and provides our liaison for
sponsors. It's rumoured that Gil will wear fishnet stockings and
sell his body on the street to help achieve the teams goals. We hope it
doesn't get to that but it's good to have a backup plan and his
dedication is appreciated.
