Hi Everyone,
After writing late last year(16th November 2008) about my own motorsport experiences I cannot believe that there are no other motorsport participants who know of or contribute to this forum.
As I explained before I am type 1 diabetic and have been for over 50 of my 53 years.
I am pretty sure that I've heard of other people who were already racing becoming diabetic and to continue their sport have had to pass suitable tests?
Who are they and where are they?
What about more competitors who are diabetic but now want to race?
I too have all the concerns about my diabetes as everyone else but all the time I can take part in motorsport I will!
I hope 2009 will be a more competative year for me as I really need to strech-my-legs in my race car.
Please contact me if you have any views on this topic.
Cheers,
Brian Webb.
PS. Can anyone help me load-up a picture?
