The van?

I only saw it do about three laps then it was back in the paddock, sounded like a gearbox fault when they were putting it back on the trailer, like bits of metal rattling around.

The two blokes with the van were saying iy developed a vibration down the main straight, so I guess it was 'box, prop or diff failure.

The MG reyland car sounded and looked very impressive.


Clio looked quick, dont get why they trailored it though as it still had a full interior and everything
