The caravan is probably full of Mitsubishi service engineers so they can change the AYC fluid every 20 miles

I don't think it was the caravan that imploded, it was the evo!

To be fair to the evo, I heard that the guy driving it was not the owner and he didn't watch the exhaust temp as he was supposed to...

UK title is a cossy, you can get mpeg from t'interweb.

Why stop at caravans, I wanna see a cateringvan, and a horse box trag race!

Double decker donuts?

I bet this thread ends up on an Evo forum, they'll be virtual verbal war with scoobynet by Evo-ers and shed pullers!
