Some body has to come last.......
He's the guy who owned GTD supercars and sent a box of so called parts to NZ, supposedly to repair Clyde and Suzanne car. Trouble was the parts didn't do the job very well because quite a few of the parts Clyde paid for were not in the box. We were talking serious money at the time especially as it was shipped to NZ.
And then GTD Supercars went tits up.
If you attend any of the remaining BTCC events, give him a wave,
and tell hime he's not been forgotten.

Didn't he "attempt" to start a GTD race series on the continent?
Yet another scam, as I recall.

| Re: Any one remember this guy: I believe you are correct Bill. Wasn't it using CAV cars or something along those lines ?
Thank the internet for helping stop this sort of thing for, in days gone by, these sort of scams prospered. I also think, from time to time, these names should be brought to the fore again, if only to stop newbee's being drawn in again. It was interesting to note how successful this guy has been - in all manner of things. |

| Re: Any one remember this guy: Maybe Frank is right as I think forum members were unhappy at a certain Spencer Marsh, son of I believe, Roger Marsh. Don't remember a Richard Marsh being involved myself. The search function on my computer worked....yippee!

Rep Power: 9  | Re: Any one remember this guy: I think Spencer Marsh is the young guy in the middle of the three in the picture above.
He is certainly the guy who was at the Autosport show trying to sell the race series, strangely called 'Roaring Forties' at the time, because the cars involved were GTD's or CAV's if I remember correctly.
A few of us had a quite chat with him, and he denied all knowledge of the Aussie company of the same name, which we thought odd for someone involved in the GT40 industry!
