Jason wishes to say a special thank you to some Antiguans that travel each year to the WCF (World Cup Finals)\u00a0 not only to support him but also assist the Team with maintenance between the races and major repairs if any car breaks, Luewico Brown, Cliff Richards, Walty, Kava and his sister Melissa Marsh who has never missed a year.<\/div>\n
