No TT in 2009
The team are not going to the Isle of Man for this years TT due to financial
constraints. After the grueling and costly world championship campaign last season, the coffers are empty. Although
there where some promising negotiations, Scud ended rumours with a definate NO last week. There is still a possibility
of an appearance next year and we will keep you posted on any decisions.

Problems hit at Round 1
Brands Hatch was a scene of missed oppurtunities and Schofield
Racing comes away with two 3rd places. A broken chain and a blown fuse deny the team top spot on the podium. Steve
Thomas said "We where fastest in every session but component failure robbed us of a bigger haul of points."
