Some proper bad ones there, inc a Saff Cossie.

That BMW M coupe one near end couldve been fatal.

Fuck knows what the white Rover was doing? It was like he didnt know a corner was coming?!

The understeering Cavaliers cracked me up tho

Took this nearly 20 years ago, and the track is still as bad.

How did the guy in the saph manage that? Corner entry was a bit quick but should have gone off backwards if anything.

looks to me like he lost it...corrected it and backed off at the same time. ONLY to find he hadnt lost it afterall, and the car headed off in the direction of his almighty correction

What a daft way to use the Quote button

There is very little run off and IMHO that makes it bad, the track layout is great, sorry for having an opinion

Every time I see that its quite impressive you 2 walked away...

But I get fuckin annoyed at people clapping... I was sat with Dingy and Nutter watching- fair enough we all know Dave - but there was nothing to clap about.
