Picture of me going the wrong way round the track apparently.

Ive tried looking in a few garages but none of them seem to sell PF, they obviously dont have such a good distribution deal as fast ford, well either that or its so much better a mag they have all sold out already

Good piccy - photo shows you doing some off roading, and them dissing Beemer drivers 'car control'! I thought you need REAL car control in order to do off roading and a track day at the same time

Tis a goodun!

Jay, yes mate thats the same car we're going to germany in

But i dont think we will be arseing around at the ring to the same extent.



It didnt really want to go sideways much at bedford so we were "encourageing it" to do so by dipping the clutch, giving it 6Krpm+ and then sidestepping the clutch to shock load the tyres into spinning, NOT a good way to get controllable drift though (as you can see )

Nick (ForeignRS) also appears to have caught the photographer's eye with a full series of snap going off track, then back on with loads of wheelspin

I think you'll find that is not my car facing Chip, it's the one with black wheels (which you can see), you can also see that the registration has too many letters for it to be mine .

If it had been me, Chip's car would have a towing eye shaped dent in it .

I was fairly sure that it wasnt your car as i remember the incident quite well, mainly cause i spent some time disucssing it with the nice man in the sin bin after being black flagged, lol
