Now lets review a little further and this is what I think the LLM field of weekly competitors might look like:::: 2-Brown 8-Lewis 10-Shepherd 13-Thornborrow 19-McLeod 23-Black 28-Jongen 48-Baker 55-Quesnelle #69- Al Inglis 88-Beatty and the 97 of Rob Inglis all should be returning for full time schedules in 08 in my mind. Thats 12 pretty solid cars in my opinion. Add to that part timers 74 Manary and 36 Zutich that should probably do as many races as last season, and probably more in Zutich's case and that makes 14. Then you have 84-Kyle Baker 44-Rick Meyer and possibly 14- Keith Temple all competing for rookie honors and that gets us to 17 cars. If Mike Brown's crew man does indeed have another possible car coming out that could make 18. Then you have the possibility of maybe Walters and Walt making the jump from Sunset, and that could potentially get us to 20 cars. And then you have McWhirter,Malcolm, and Brandon Watson that could do selected appearances if some of the things I'm hearing are true and that could be 23 cars!!!! Wishful thinking???????......... OR NOT!!!!LOL but the point I'm trying to get across is I dont think its a stretch this year to get 18 regular guys and that to me is a good basis for better things to come.
This is not rumor and i am speaking on first hand infomation from 3 weeks ago Walters is staying at Sunset and Walt is going to switch to Barrie .
* Reading some old and very funny threads from here shouldn't Lewis always be referred to as "Show stopper" ?
Well as for Walters, I'd start believing where hes running opening night!! Even if you heard that from his own mouth SLEEPY!!!!LOL Tommy likes to keep people guessin like that, I have known him for years myself!! But if he stays at Sunset all the power to him, and I hope him and Morrow have a good title chase. And I know Walt as well, and have heard from him in past years he's making the switch so who really knows but I have no reason to doubt your info as I havent talked to either one since racing season. But as I said in a past post in the last 2 or 3 years when Walt has run Barrie he run well there!! I hope he does come to Barrie another stout runner for 08!!!!
that sounds like a decent enough field for this year....
I did hear that Greg Callow was coming back to drive in LLM. This got me wondering if he will be the driver for Mike Brown's crew man who apparently purchased a chassis in the off season. There would be the connection through the former TWO TIME team of years past, so this made sense to me. I think thats a chassis from a former Al Inglis/Roger Laguenesse LM so should be a pretty decent car if I'm piecing this all together right??? Anyone else hearing anything regarding Callow???
