12:05 “it just makes me smile!”
And that is the joy of driving a Seven, a joy that hasn’t diminished for me since 1996, when I built my first Caterham Seven. I can’t wait for fair weather so I can take it out and enjoy it.

Congratulations Sam! We met at Snetterton last year and your enthusiasm for Caterham and for racing was off the scale, I look forward to watching your races throughout the year. The big question, is who will be the presenter for the live streams??

[@samanthaparker92]

Thank you! Sorry for the late response. Racing on the academy is brilliant! I’m still going to be presenting! 😄

[@Very_Grumpy_Cat]

For all os non British people, are there also akatamy cars with left hand drive?

Ingliš👌

[@jpe1]

I built and raced a left hand drive Caterham Seven in SCCA E-production class from 1999 through 2006, and there are dozens of other LHD Sevens still racing in SCCA and other American series (NASA, VRG, VSCCA, etc)
