All just been sealed underneath etc, not really anywhere for the sand/salt to get in to rust, but yes i agree with what you are saying, i wouldnt make a habit of it, but just this once was ok

Totally stupid and irresponsible, but what else would you expect from me?
I remember you doing it in france in your rear wheeled nova & that french dude came over and had a word.
Remember that chip?? It was a few years back.

Shithot pics

What you lot dont seem to realise when you say about all the corrosive sea salt/water is this was done at WESTON...

A)- The sea at Weston is usually about 5 miles away beyond the mud and used condoms anyhow.
and
B)- The only less sea-like seaside in the world is probably Severn beach near Bristol, as Weston isnt really a SEAside, more like a big riverside

Brought the mag yesterday. Looks good...even got a pic of my old Fiesta doing the 178mph.

Chipper - Have you got details of the person who sorted you out with the pics at FF? I would love to get my hands on high res ones taken of my old car on the 178 day??? If so please pm me.

Thanks - Sunny.
