Once again it is musical chairs at SCUM. Another change in the driver line-up for Silverstone. Rab Harding is back driving the No 0 car with Angelo Wolner staying in the seat of the No 2 car. Harding who has been rigorously testing the update of the SC-204 at the SCUM test track at Kickatinalong has been called into the drivers seat for Silverstone. He will be replacing Matt Hunt.

Hunt was supposed to be racing at Silverstone this weekend, but he has developed a problem with his vision. We asked Dan Regan about the problem with Hunt and his thoughts on Harding being called back.

"Matt seems to have developed a problem with his eyes, when he is driving everything seems to be going in slow motion. We have sent him to see an eye specialist and the prognosis wasn't very good. The doctor tried to explain it in lamens terms by comparing it to a computer, he said that Matt's graphics card was just not up to scratch and with his cpu being over-clocked, it was making a hell of a mess.

We are happy to have Rab back racing, although this has put our testing back a bit. All Rab had to say was that he hopes it is pissing down for the race. "

With a 50/50 chance of rain at Silverstone this weekend, the SCUM boys are hopeful of a good result. Over the past couple of seasons the team has performed quite well in wet weather and we are all hoping they can do it again.

Late Press.

Just before filing this story I received late news on Matt Hunt. After visiting more eye specialists and a Proctologist (?????), it is believed that Hunt could be out for the rest of the season. I'm not sure if this is because of his eyes or his visit to the proctologist.

If this is so, then I would think that the SCUM boys will be looking for a fast and reliable driver to join the team for next season. You could nearly say that the HUNT has started.
