American superstar drivers Gary Tomkins and Jimmy Phelps invaded Australia the past 2 seasons to run against the best of the best from the land down under. Now, our friends from the other side of the country will be sending one of their own to the U.S. to challenge our drivers. 2009 Australian V8 Modified champion Peter Britten will be coming to the United States in June, and will run 6 races in 9 days. Britten, who runs a Troyer in Australia, will be driving a brand new Troyer house car in those events. It should be exciting to see, and hopefully more Australian drivers follow suit in the future! For what races he's going to be running, and more information, read Ben Graham's article on the Super Dirt Series website at the following link, http://www.superdirtcarseries.com/news/2009/april/040909_sd_aussiebritten.aspx
I also know that Australian driver Mark Robinson is interested in running over here this summer. Robinson, in his low-30s, is already one of the all-time greates in V8 modified racing over in Australia. Mark drives Teo's, so he'd prefer to run a Teo. If anyone knows anyone interested in fielding a car for Mark, e-mail me at Jman97531@aol.com.
