Starters' paradise

Starters’ paradise

Sir,

I would like to congratulate Reynard on its startling IndyCar debut at Surfers Paradise. I know that Adrian Reynard has had previous firsttime success when he has entered his cars in new for

mulae (F3 and F3000 spring to mind), and that his achievement should perhaps be no surprise in that context, but given the combined expertise of Lola and Penske in IndyCar racing, thought Reynard’s effort was exceptional.

It fills me with hope that we shall be treated to a highly competitive season (which we can follow closely thanks to the excellent satellite TV coverage), with close competition between three companies who are doing much to demonstrate British engineering prowess overseas. Malcolm Foster, Banbury,
