Well done to Olly Clark who just placed first going up the hill at the goodwood festival of speed in a Scooby, finishing ahead of a mini fiber glass shell with a Nissan GT-R twin turbo 850bhp engine, well done Olly.

Yeah been watching it all weekend. RCM, Olly and Matt have done an amazing job with goodwood. Hats off to them.
Chuffed to bits for olly what a great achievement! I don't really know the guy, but had a chat recently at the shop and at one of the sprints and he really is a nice genuine fella. Not often people who are at the top of their game have time for the little guy.
Well done RCM

Let's hope we see Gobstopper out at the next sprint, that will make things a bit more interesting in S3 eh?

I was there on the Sunday and saw Olly from Molecomb, I must admit I thought the Mini had him after the first straight leading by 1 second already. Cracking day out and great finale to it.

Only took one picture on the day because I was to busy counting the amount of machinery I want once the lotto comes in.



Great bit of engineering.

Great achievement....

Gobstopper 2 can't run in the 22b Sprint series due to rear suspension.

Not 100% sure but think this might rule out gobstopper 2 ?

SUSPENSION: Must retain the basic suspension design of the original chassis. E.g. McPherson strut front/rear on Classic/Newage. McPherson strut front and multilink rear on Hatch. No interlinked suspension systems other than via conventional ARB's is allowed. No active control of the suspension system is allowed.
