Hi ,I'm Chris Wilson and I run a UK company,doing both specialised work in the motor racing field, and general servicing and repairs to high performance road cars. We have been established for some 21 years,always based here in a village called Gatley,in Cheshire.We are located within a few miles of Manchester International Airport,and within yards of the M63 Motorway.

I have had this company since I formed it shortly after leaving my old school, Manchester Grammar.We are fortunate in being successful enough to allow my participation in the UK racing scene, and I have run in formulas from Karts to National Formula 3.

As well as racing,I have sold various race cars to customers,and a lot of time is spent preparing and maintaining them.

We run an inertia type engine dyno,for the setting up and development of 2 and 4 stroke kart and motor bike engines,which is computer controlled with specially developed control software.

It was because of being "forced" into learning about computers via this software,that my interest in PC's and the Internet came about.I now spend a disgraceful amount of time on the Internet,and have invested in an ISDN link to U-Net my service provider and to a good friends home,Jeff Stott.We also enjoyed 18 months of Cable Modem access,on Cable and Wireless's trial,now sadly ended.The withdrawal symptoms remain.

My wife Jane, and myself have always gone racing together,and her support both moral and physical has enabled us to take long weekends away,travelling thousands of miles a year,following various race series.This last year, I have dedicated some considerable time on our house,as it had suffered at the hands of neglect,(racing....),and was demanding the input of time and money.As a result my outings in race cars has been almost zero this last year,but I will start a season in a late F3 Dallara with a Mugen Honda power unit in 1999.The car is now found and purchased,but I am still looking for a decent Mugen Honda and any useful chassis or engine spares.All offers most welcome

As well as our interests in racing,we both share a love of dogs.16 years ago,I achieved an ambition to own a Hungarian Komondor.At the time this was a very rare breed in this country,and perhaps only 60 dogs existed in the whole of the UK.Unfortunately,the situation is even bleaker now,with probably no more than 35 Komondors still around.Our old dog Ozzie died at the remarkable age of 12 years,something of a feat for a 10 stone dog.We had virtually given up finding any replacement for him, but were incredibly lucky to find some pups in deepest Wales.His successor,Kasper is pictured below,with me trying to find time to entertain the dog as well as go racing!

Jane has another unusual breed, an 11 year old Anatolian Karabash,sometimes also known as the Turkish Mastiff in some countries.Her dog Kara,was one of the first into the UK, and as such is from working Turkish descent. This has been quite an experience,as when younger she took her guarding instincts very seriously indeed,and was quite a handful.As she matured she became a lot calmer,and now in her old age is a real softie.She never got over the loss of her companion Ozzie the Komondor, and treats his replacement with some disdain.In fact they dislike one another intensely,and have to be kept apart.

As if two very large dogs were not enough,we felt obliged to have another young dog as company for the Komondor,when it became apparent that the old dog and the youngster were never going to live peacably together.We decided on the Giant Schnauzer,and what a character Basil has turned out to be! We were warned of their supreme intelligence,but shrugged it off as an exaggeration.This was our undoing,as he rapidly learnt to open both cupboard and room doors,and to decide for himself when meal times were,and his menu for the moment....We have now reached an "understanding"but life is always exciting with Basil around.

We welcome e-mail about our professional services as well as about dogs in general and our "own" breeds in particular.

Finally I am interested in talking to anyone who may wish to have their race car or engine prepared and maintained for the 1999 season.Our speciality is Formula 3 cars,which,contrary to the opinion of those without experience of them,can be run on a Clubmans budget,for the fastest laps to the pound imaginable.I had 2 of the most enjoyable seasons racing I have experienced in a Reynard 873 Formula 3 car,participating in national races and in Formula Libre events with the restrictor removed and a cam change.Not only were these my most successful seasons,but also my cheapest.These cars are reliable and incredibly well engineered.Remember these cars new cost around £60,000 ....Without an engine. Yet now one can race a full carbon tubbed single seater car ,around 4 years old, for less than a competitive Westfield or Caterham,and do lap times faster than anything outside F2 or F1. If you are interested,please e-mail me.
