Sue Stockdale interviews Gary Gunn and Jonathan Loader of Loaded Gunn Racing, one of the manufacturers of the Duratec cars that compete in the Sports 2000 Championship. Gary talks about car manufacturing and development, the upgrades made to a championship-winning car and the challenges of testing and developing a car. He also shares his early inspiration for getting into motor racing through watching go-karting.

The partnership between Gary and Jonathan is characterized by a clear division of labour and a recognition of each other's strengths. Gary acknowledges that he is better at building cars than driving them, while Jonathan excels in handling the administrative and financial aspects of their racing team. Both have achieved significant success in their racing careers, and enjoying a fulfilling and enjoyable time in the sport.

These interviews were conducted at round 4 this year's Sports 2000 championship at Donington Park National Circuit.
