"Its great to be in Australia and to drive
on the ex-GP Adelaide circuit. I enjoy the war climate but hope that
it doesn't get too hot for the race on Sunday. The Viper is not the
coolest of cars... It is quite a different experience racing over the
festive season, with a great atmosphere in the paddock. I am sure it will
be a very enjoyable weekend."
Hugh Chamberlain - Team
Principal
"Adelaide has spent a very great deal of time
preparing for the race. This is obvious from the quality of the circuit,
pit and paddock area. All our team have been treated extremely well and
are being made welcome wherever we go. I see no reason why the race should
not follow all this hard work and be a great success. We are looking
forward to it."
Ray Lintott - Driver
"It's great to be back with the
Chamberlain team, racing at Adelaide. As an Australian gentleman-driver,
its particularly pleasing to race with such a team in an Australian event after
successfully racing with the same team at the Daytona 1998 event. Whilst I
have raced on the Adelaide circuit on two previous occasions in touring cars, my
two co-drivers have more current knowledge and experience of the Viper.
But we'll work as a team and assist each other. Its going to be a good
weekend."
Stephen Watson - Driver
"This is the closest we have been to
the Oreca factory cars all season. I honestly believe I could have pipped
Belloc to 2nd on my last lap but I made a mistake into the last corner.
Jack Cunningham awarded me an aviation license after my 'flying' exhibition over
the curbs. This circuit is mega."
Stephen Watson - Driver
"Team did an excellent job and the car
did not miss a beat for the entire race, apart from an old tosser (who happens
to be my father) who left his visor up at a refueling stop, for which we got a
'stop and go' penalty. The temperatures in the cockpit were very high
which made the longer stints quite difficult. We kept the car off the
walls and brought it home in 3rd place, the best result we could realistically
hope for."
