G'day Adi06,
Thanks for the question.
He is going OK.
Ambrose made history by finishing third in the O'Reilly Auto Parts 250 at Kansas Speedway on July 2, 2006. This was the first time a non-American driver has finished in the top five of a truck series event since Canadian Ron Fellows won on the Watkins Glen road course on June 26, 1999. He also took the lead in the opening laps, becoming the first Australian to lead laps in NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series competition. The next week, he made further history by scoring his first Bud pole position for the Built Ford Tough 225 at Kentucky Speedway and then leading the most laps in the race itself, though he finished 19th.
Lets hope he can build on a promising start.
Regards

Marcos ( with an O!) is doing fairly well. I saw an interview with him on RPM and he said that the biggest problem he has is learning about aerodynamics! I think he said " I thought I knew about aerodynamics but...".
He'sdoing OK but isn't near the front. I think both he and the team are looking at this as a learning year. Incidentally, one of the problems he had was being understood by the team. They couldn't understand his Aussie accent!

I'm not really into V8 Supercars or NASCAR but I've just checked out the official NASCAR website (nascar.com)...it looks a lot more impressive than formula1.com. You can find it all there. I'm just reading through "NASCAR 101" under "Basics"
