Jim made his decision for personal reasons, and everone has to stop when they feel the time is right. I always knew Steven Hislop would never race there again, cos he said to me " I have had all my lucky breaks". When the time comes only you know, and that was his moment.
Of course, his mate, Jim D would tell you another story!!
Long live the Purple Helmets. Steven gave that up too, cos he couldn't stand the celebrity....
