Team manager and Fraser's employee Allan Warner,
explained "As a Company we have given support to many
riders over the years, especially at the TT and the
Manx GP. Dominic approached us with a good CV and
attitude but didn't have a penny. He reminded me of
when I was younger so, I managed to persuade Neal
Fraser to help him as I have now retired from
competition".
Neal Fraser said " Allan has raced for me for 15 years
and it was about time the old git moved over and gave
the youngsters a chance! Seriously, when Allan asked
me to back Dominic I didn't hesitate. We will see how
he goes at the Manx and be looking at the possibility
of TT rides for him in 2002".
