I have a mate who's entering this next year too, he had a taster of it at Thruxton this year and liked it so much he signed up and has bought the bike already, from a mate of his who competed this year.
Andy won't trouble the front guys and, I'm sure, will be pleased if he makes it directly through to the final from initial qualifying.
Been racing with Bemsee for a few years, Minitwins and, latterly, in Thunderbikes.
