Really that cheap? Don't you need a full-time staff?Originally posted by original PM View PostYou would do well to spunk £100 million on a few years TC racing
it costs approx £250k per year.
so even if he wants to spunk £10 million he will be racing for 40 years (approx!)
Anyway, if he gets to be a professional racer for 5-10 years, he'd probably consider it worth it.

Pumps all his money in to Touring car racing not understanding how much it costs and how it all works, finds out he is decidedly average so makes no money back from it and is back as a mechanic in hmmm, 5 years?

Probably, but if you're not going to follow your dream when you win £100m, when are you going to? He'll have had a great 5 years.Originally posted by northernladuk View PostLet me see if I can predict the future here..

I bet you'd blow it all on accountants to advise you on common sense things.

He's not that massive. Not as big as MF, for example.
In fact he's quite slim.

"I told Nicky, my partner, 'I've done it, I've won the lottery'."
"But she told me to shut up and to stop being an idiot," he added.
"Next we called my dad but he said I was being an idiot too and that I should stop drinking.
