While I&#8217;m not completely out of the woods yet, I&#8217;m fortunate that my health is currently good, at the moment I&#8217;m cancer free and can get on with life again,\u201d said Tethys about his comeback in the Top Fuel category of the FIA European Drag Racing Championship.<\/strong><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat seemed like as good an excuse as any to return to Top Fuel. I&#8217;ll be back driving an Erbacher car again, this time with backing from MustardBet (<a href=\"http:\/\/mustardbet.com\">http:\/\/mustardbet.com<\/a>), a sports betting and casino website. Peter Walters at PWRD has done a design for the car, which looks great. I&#8217;m not one to make predictions about how I&#8217;m going to get on, but I&#8217;m not planning to just make up the numbers. The aim is to be competitive. Liam&#8217;s impressive form at Easter has shown that the bar is going to be pretty high this year, but we&#8217;ll give it our best shot. It may only have been a couple of years, but it feels like an eternity since I last sat in the hot seat, and I&#8217;m looking forward to it. Roll on the Main Event. I can\u2019t wait,\u201c said Tethys.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s currently undecided how many races Tethys will do. \u201cMuch as I&#8217;d like to do the full season. We&#8217;ll see how the Main Event and Tierp 1 go before making a decision about how much of the rest of the season we can do.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cThe last time I made a public announcement about my racing, it was to say that I had cancer, which had forced me to take a step back.
