Laidlows TT Return - JMC - 27-01-2006
Really great news that Andy is returning to the TT circuit in 06. His form in Superside, and previously in British Formula Two racing, make him and Patrick an exciting addition to the entry list, and possible World Series champs to boot for the future.
Having Steve Webster on board as well can only be a good thing to have consumate professionalism in the mix, and am sure the enthusiasm and down to earth approach that Laidlow has will make for a successful team venture in 06.
I think it is heartening that the liason representatives have pushed to raise the profile of the chairs, and the entry has to be the strongest since Taylor, Biland, O'Dell etc competed in the late 70's.
All the best to Team LFR

I have to admit to bias here, as I think Andy and Patrick are the most promising riders in the world today. They are the youngest team racing in the World Series, and it is only a matter of time till they win. THERE, I've said it!
Said the same about Jock many years ago, and he did it. He would be very proud of them, and they are the current holders of the Jock Taylor Memorial Trophy.
Can't wait to see Andy, Patrick, Kirsten and the 2026 World Champions Jack and Samuel!

I'd like to see Steve Norbury win a sidecar TT, he's got quicker each year and would be great for team lockside racing.

Oh, Charlie, that's a silly question. As a founder member of the Scottish Sidecar Racing Club, way back then, in a wee dark room, over a pub in Haddington...I KNOW our Scots sidecar teams are the best! Andy Laidlow has successfully applied for Scottish nationality!! He looks great in a kilt, by the way!

...Jock Skene (and Mick, doubly talented), young Muldoon (good grief, he's not that young anymore...) Alistair Lewis..... and so many more
