Lucky ! Almost wrecking a Ford GT in public
« on: July 09, 2006, 10:29:45 pm »
Hi,

This was during the supercar run at Goodwood on Saturday. I thought the stupid idiot was going to wreck my favourite car right in front of me, :o but by pure luck he got away with it without hitting anything. I bet he had to change his underwear though ! ;D

Too much throttle coming out the first bend and this was the result.

He got a big round of applause though !

Well Adrian Newey finished the job today at the Le Mans Classic though and wrecked his GT 40 at the first Mulsanne chicane.

Never argue with an idiot, they'll only drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

So it was 'Good ol'English' weather again? ;)



Reminds me of FoS'03, when I turned up in full biking leathers while it was 28 celcius all day :-\

How to get it all wrong ;D

When it rains at Goodwood it absolutly Pi88es down, think it was 2002 when everywhere was about 6 inches of slushy mud, still a great day though.
