dad and i once raced a trans am round luxembourg in a rover 216 gti

lol we won when they ended up on a pavement (albeit an empty one thankfully)

ok so on an open road we wouldve been slaughtered but it wasnt an open road lol



also dont usually have a problem beating the boy racers away from the lights in his 4.2l jag raced an extremely tuned calibra round my town speeds in excess of 140mph lol 1 oclock in the morning so no worries about traffic.


also had some fun with my friends dad racing boy racers aay from the lights in his 67 mustang 6.3l v8 holley carbs , nice big hood scoop , the front wheels actually lift off the ground if you give it full throttle not far or for long but they do lol

Speaking of which saw a nasty blowout on the M25 on sunday, the red corsa ended up gaining on me backwards, nearly hit me, and went off the road at about 70mph, think he stayed upright. I made a 999 call, but we decided was too far ahead to stop safely and help out. Everyone who was behind him pulled over. Hope the guys ok, but there is no real way of finding out.

he was lucky....lucky to get to 70mph on the m25
