Question Britcar @ Brands Hatch Nov '05 Driver ID ?

Hi,

I know a few of you guys are clued up on your drivers so I thought there may be a chance of getting an ID on the guy driving the car below.
It was taken at Brands Hatch in November last year at the final round of the Britcar series. If possible the team name may be usefull as well.

Can I also check the car is a BMW M3 GTR please



EDIT: replaced pic for one without daft frame!

The car is a BMW M3 E36 being driven in class GTC by SELDON/O'BRIEN. Whether that's Seldon or O'Brien I don't know. It finished 3rd in both races. Source - MST.

It's a bit tricky 'cos you've got your DoF a little too small , but I suspect it's the #68 BMW M3 E46 being driven by Mr. Wilds. They failed to finish.

I can confirm the Driver is Eugene O'Brian. To help Peter Seldon wears glasses! Here is a link to their site http://www.serverware-racing.co.uk/default.asp
