Hot on the heels of the recent renaming of the 50-year old National Points Championship, Smithynet can exclusively reveal that all Smith racers are to follow in the footsteps of the inaugural Smith, Sir Stu Smith, and be re-christened with a middle name taken from a British Leyland car.

From now on, please ensure that you refer to the current racers, Andy and Stu, with their full and proper names: "Andy Smith" is now to be known as "Andy 'The Montego' Smith", and "Stu Smith Jnr" is now to be known as "Stu 'The Marina' Smith Jnr".

The Smithy Committee meets about once a month during the racing season to discuss racing tactics and to gloss over any inconveniences. The committee members are elected by the Smithy Association's drivers and associate members at the end of each season, and then after the elections the Smiths then correct any mistakes made by the electorate by removing inappropriate committee members and appointing the correct people using whichever interpretation of the rules is necessary.

After months of speculation, rumours of significant technological advances, radical chassis layout, new aerofoil developments, and an exciting new signwriting job, Smithynet can exclusively reveal that this is the new shale car that Andy 'The Montego' Smith will be leaving at home when not attending shale meetings for the rest of the season...

When asked what the team thought about the retro signwriting job being leaked online before the first public showing, a spokesman said that Dave's Peed.
