No i mean even when I used to drive it fairly often, I was happy to just enjoy it as a road, not a "kind of closed track" and if I wanted to explore handling limits I would sooner do it at coombe.

i've got no photos, but the old Rhuallt hill in north wales would be ideal for drifting. its 3 lanes wide, a steep climb, earth banks on one side. big drop on the other, pub at the bottom, and gets used about half a dozen times a week now its been bypassed by the A55.

Chip, do you remember when we explored the limits of the handling in my old nova on a country lane in the wet and ended up doing a little rally cross? haha.

I used to work for O2 in slough, mainly down by the station but occasionally over at bath road in the human resources department.

My dog breathes O2 in as part of the process that keeps him alive!

How spooky a co-incidence is that?

If we keep on mentioning O2 in the same thread it will end up on our daily media reports we get. Now that would be piss funny
