I have never seen anything like it we were pissing ourselves everytime it came around
He spun at the hairpin and stalled
We were stood next to the clark of the course and he said to the marshal
if he keeps doing that black flag him [
Dcs car ithe silver escosf it was the one on track was fantastic
I expected Robs Astra to take him out down the back straight as its nearly as fast as Rods,
What engine has DC got must be a massive speck ?
The rs4 looks the bollox
Well impressed with that
SIB was going well as usual tusling all day with the other mitsi
That car never missis a beat
Couple of cars off quite a bit of damage to the audi
The tigra flipped over and
a pug into the barrier also at the same place,
Stood with Tiff for a while he was happily papping away with his camera
Good day just a tad cooold

Back end broke away coming through Gerrards, hit the gravel and flipped it onto its roof.

Both driver and passenger ok, I think we'll transplant it all into a nova shell now as that Tigra was a bit rough underneath
