no, i was to busy watching it

classic touring cars, were on the gp circuit, minis didnt have a chance as they got owned on the gp track, one was running very very last, so everythime he came into paddock hill he went into a massive lift off oversteer slide (every single lap) he got a massive cheer when he finished, was brillaint to watch

I remember 1300cc racing MK Is.

I think they were Broadspeed cars or similar.

They were little monsters. Proper little tools.

Would love one.

The larger capacity Alan Mann cars are absolute corkers too.

I love the colour scheme so much, I even put my mountain bike together in the same colours.

isn't one near me.

Nobody else sells it, or Classic Ford.

Good job I subscribe to motorsport, or I wouldn't get that either.

In the widow maker section they test drive 7 cars most renowned for being dangerous. The article says they are the cars best known for ending up in ditches and leaving wives without husbands hence the name lol. Quite an interesting read. The 1920s ford special is crazy.
