In the light of recent activity checks, Snake Motorsports can announce we have found a replacement for Nick in the next two races were he is suspended. Owen Edwards will be filling in for the young Dutchmen who hasn't been able to keep up with the GPGSLRS regulations. Soon after the news from the suspension became available Owen picked up the phone, and messaged the SMS HQ's in The Netherlands, offering himself to the race seat, in addition to some great results he has put down Maikel de Boer immediately agreed on this offer. We haven't got official confirmation from TN Racing's Dan Mills yet but we hope he will let us loan Owen!
Owen wasn't the only one offering his services, we had help from another team as well, we'd like to thank everyone for helping out and securing us place in the next two races!
Snake Motorsports will also be looking for another test driver, we had one but since he fluked out as well due to activity we are now left in the problems. We need an active test driver who will be able to step up into the race seat when he's needed.
End of statement,
Snake Motorsports
If you are racing, keep on racing and get some points!
