CCA: Mangel's sons to race in Atlantics by Virgil Ellipse
15th Nov 2007
Ant and Dec Mansell are to continue their racing careers in America from 2008, where they will race for Champ Car Atlantic team Walker Racing.

The deal, announced yesterday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, will see Wurzel Mangel's sons racing with the team which won the 2006 title.

The joined-at-the-hip racers, whose father won the Champ Car big boys' title in 1993, have surprisingly both signed for the same team again and this time hopes are high that neither of the brothers will start beating up any of their team-mates who turn out to be faster than they are.
