This is Geoffrey's latest project, an assault on the Fellowship of Indigenous Aardvarks World F1 championship 

Geoffrey had been considering starting a new team for some time. Then he discovered a hidden clause in the regulations which permit the use of older engines of a higher capacity. "I consulted some of my chums in the Grimscote Racing Drivers Club, but, after two weeks they could not decide if this was worthwhile. So I said FORZA! and formed Corsa Cavallo Blanco, named after a particularly good watering hole that I know."

Geoffrey undertook a gruelling testing regime and was confident that all would be ready for the next GP of the season. He then signed up a star driver to take on the bulk of the work, as owing to other commitments (his directorship of the British Rubber Duck Company), he will not be able to spend so much time away from the humming centre of Grimscote.

Geoffrey also appointed Petty Officer Richard Half-Nelson Bt. as team manager. Half Nelson has now been replaced in the team by Innuendo's manager Harry Stocricy.

However other teams were not happy with the equivalence formula for W12 24,000cc to V8 2,400cc and were considering protesting when the mighty Cavallo Blanco leviathan blew them away on the straights.

Geoffrey is pictured below at his private Grimscote track during initial testing.

  Aylesford subsequently signed Taki Innuendo as the team's number one driver.

Aylesford said at the time "Taki comes to us from a $uccessful season at the respected Kwashamoto Racing Team. We chose him for his $pecial abilities and unique talent$. We look forward to a rewarding partner$hip."

Mr Aylesford announced that the Japanese glossy magazine "Harro" would be the primary $ponsor of the team in a multi month contract.

Harro is a quality publication dedicated to revealing the lifestyle of Japanese game show contestants and sports stars to the reading public.

Owner, Iffy Innuendo said "This is an opportunity for us to go grobal".

Following the unrest amongst competing teams Corsa Cavallo Blanco purchased two new chassis built to current specification.

Originally both Aylesford and team manager Richard Half-Nelson Bt had insisted that they would campaign their original 24,000cc W12 leviathan as they would be able to take advantage of the loophole in the 2006 regulations that allowed older cars with larger engines.

But according to team sources (Olga Kalashnikova), Aylesford is concerned about the impending freeze on engine specifications. "As an independent team without a manufacturer deal we have to weigh our options very carefully, if a freeze on development is introduced we will have to have the most advanced engine and chassis possible before it takes effect".

Innuendo gets to grips with the new car, soon he will be as swift as the divine wind.

Taki's Manager Harry Stocricy worked a miracle to provide the required money as two new chassis would require a level of funding that only he, and team sponsor the proprietor of "Harro" magazine, Iffy Innuendo could have raised. This also meant that Geoffrey had to employ another driver for the second car.

This he did and took on the talented Jose Laika Schittoff-Aschovell who is Argentinean of German descent. Alleged to have access to a vast family fortune. The origins of which are rumoured to have originated from a distant ancestor Sir Cloudsley Shovel an Admiral in the British navy who managed to sink a ship full of gold somewhere off the Scilly isles. Jose (pronounced gosa) won the classic Leningrad - Berlin race in record time, having previously won the Berlin - Poland sprint event. He is managed by Herr Schwartzer Abt, a German financier.

Jose

Sadly Jose has left the team under a bit of a dark cloud.

Olga Kalashnikova team spokesperson confirmed the departure of Jose Laika Schittoff-Aschovell from the team. He and his manager Herr Schwartzer Abt have been caught in the act of trying to sell the plans and copies of the planning permission for the newly designed Cold Higham village hall!

Given the proximity to the team's fabulous base at Grimscote and the fact that the intended recipient was non other than ex team manager, Petty Officer Richard Half-Nelson Bt. Aylesford had no choice but to sack the offenders immediately.

Eastern European Mike Hoch was the new number two driver at Corsa Cavallo Blanco.

Aylesford says that Hoch is quite a find," he will work all day for half the money". Hoch says that he has some relatives that are long lost, but believed to have been living in this country since WW2 under the name of Maxwell.

Mike Hoch and Olga Kalashnikova would be pleased to hear from anyone with information on their whereabouts.

Both Taki Innuendo the team number one, and his father Iffy, team sponsor are delighted by Aylesford's choice.

Volunteers

Geoffrey has become very concerned over the treatment of the volunteers within motorsport of whom he says "I would not have had a career at all without these stout fellows".

What is concerning Geoffrey the most is that the major organisers are becoming increasingly motivated by money. A a result the treatment and consideration given to the average bod on the bank has deteriorated to an unacceptable degree.

The result is now an alarming reduction in the number of volunteers on the bank. There have been suggestions from some quarters that a minimal number of paid (trained?) people could do the job. Geoffrey is not amused by this and thinks it a dangerous idea.

The irony of the situation as Geoffrey sees it is that the so called minor clubs still treat these volunteers with utmost consideration and respect, in many cases the small one make & national clubs are giving twice the subsistence allowance that the major clubs ever did, as well as the nice touches, such as flasks, mugs and even rucksacks as well as a kind letter of thanks following a meeting.

Geoffrey is extremely concerned that the sport may be irreparably damaged by this trend, he is trying to work out a course of action.

IGNORE GEOFFREY AT YOUR PERIL!
