This may look long, but its worth the watch.

I have always follwed Group B since watching them at Night event special not long after they were banned, at Oulton Park in the late 80's.

The figures are just mental.....2.9 to 60 on gravel 30 years ago

Did you see the guy talking about how it was his/their fault for being on the track etc, he was fooking stood in the road again talking about it! lol

JamesR 2nd April 2012 02:03

If it weren't for the bellends standing in the CENTRE of the road when a car is about to come flying past at 130mph then it might still be around today.

Idiots ruined it completely, i've no idea how the drivers could drive at that speed through what was basically a crowd, they must of been bricking one.

I sometimes pretend I'm a rally driver outside my college, everyone assumes you'll stop for them when they walk in front of your car. The adrenaline rush you get from nearly hitting them gives me an erection x

But no in all seriousness it must be fooking mental.

Or the people who think they're hard by walking across the road stupidly slow. Knock it down a gear and floor it and they soon flap.
