Now that is a sports car, not perhaps by our standards but a sports car none the less.

My mate Steve runs the Ducati races and it was a horrible fluke accident the leading team bike sprayed oil over the track and then it all went crazy the poor guy slid into a bike that had crashed in front of him they are really good friends with each other.another sad note Dominique our bike guide in France crashed and died last Tuesday,s*** .
 
Read about the accident at Donnington yesterday, very sad indeed but these guys know the risks. Sorry also to hear about your guide Hugh.:(

Love the old Merc 190E Cosworth....

Great clip Mike :thumbsup:

MK1 Escort, RS200 Audi Quattro , Lancia Integrale for me. Love the mad DS and as for the Renault 5, I'd rather drape my damp plumbs over an electric fence then take public transport home. Hideous car :D
Oh, Merc 190E Cosworth road car = :scorecard:
 
We saw a greyhound absolutely thrash a Porsche 911 over 50 mtrs from a standing start in Spain a few years ago.
 
When we were kids my mate Mick had a horse that would beat my brother's MK1 Cortina GT across the field where the wedding was held the other week.
