One I saw went at about half 2. They closed the strip while they got the little cleaning squad out.

The astra saloon was a friend of a friends car. Has a C20let in it with 75 shot of NOS. He thought he would try 100 shot was told it would pop oh well! he got a 13.5 before that. The clutch gave up and came out through the gear box! he live in Northen Ireland!!!!!!

It was an astra saloon no idea if it was a real 200ts, something definately did go BANG and big chunks of metal when flying, i was directly aside it on the hill wen it went pop. Lucky the vectra or omega in the other lane didnt get a few chips.

Did it brake down further up field? didnt get alooksie
