Did they allow the De Loreans out on the ring?
I would have thought they would need extra strong armco

Most of them seemed to be driving round with doors still open, and one chap was pulling the body away from his tyre using a big screw driver

Mind you 10 GT40's there at the same time was pretty cool too. Fakes they may have been but I wouldnt know with most of them.

Especially the RWD ones with the engine in the back where the seats supposed to be. Saw one on E-bay go for around £5k a couple of months ago, absoloute classic of a car.

Im not sure I really need the first curb and sometimes find myself hunting to actually take it. The second one is a must though, im through there flat but I must admit my bum is twitching hard on the exit......

Paul, yes Sabine passed Dave on the entrance to AF and then proceeded to light the tyres up and drift her way through the complex. He said it was a special moment sitting behind while she did it.

I know the owner and it lives there so yes it exists.

Oh and to make it worse for you he also races in the VLN, so he knows his way around there too.

Found it

Bubba, FYSI

*Serious & slightly narked mode on*

1. I would never claim a scalp unless it was true, what's the point? I live here and it would be disputed immediately if it weren't true.

2. When I mentioned the F1 I also mentioned that it was easy to overtake someone who doesn't know the track, regardless of what they're driving, whether this F1 was the guy Gary knows or not, I couldn't tell you.

1. No need with the size of the scalp you have already.

FFS, Karl, I now know that racing is the only thing you don't have a sense of humour about. Why the foof wouldn't I believe you you touchy sod? I'm just teasing, so chill, man.
