www.fordrallyesport.com or www.m-sport.co.uk
As for their "secret headquarters" they're in Dovenby Hall in Cockermouth, Cumbria. Ive been around it and its shit hot. Security is like Fort Knox though!

Boreham was where M-Sport were based originally, then they moved to Cockermouth once they secured the Ford deal in 1998. Malcom Wilson, head of M-Sport is originally from Cumbria and wanted to set up his business in his local community as hes quite a homely guy. Plus Cumbria has brilliant areas to test in.

Just read it there, all sounds like good news mate, must be a great feeling getting sponsership, how'd u swing that? Good luck with the testing...when is the day at Knockhill?
Ive got the McRae stages as a definite...so u better be on form big man, and its my birthday that day as well! Only thing that could stop me going is the fact that I have just bagged a job for the summer and I dont start till July so cant ask for the day off realy...so just hoping I dont need to work that day!

The French Connection Day at Knockhill is Sunday 29th June. My car will be on display in Ecosse's tent then I'll be taking a few of the public around the track to make them shite themselves basically! My gf will be there with all her camera stuff, so I'll get some good shots for you.
As for the McRae Stages, I'll be competing, just sorting out entry this coming week. Email me if you can/cant manage to the rally.
Testing tomorrow should be fun, its been sunny here for quite a bit so forest is nice and dry, but there was thunder earlier so being strapped in a hunk of metal aint gonna be fun!

Top Secret! (In other words, the ranger is letting us in for a while without the forestry comission knowing!)
Cant really say as I could get us all into trouble, but its not a famous forest or anything!
