SWMBO has won and its midsummer murders here. Sigh.

 

Had a quick flick over at the break, Gordon Spice Racing-  team mates Rouse and Spice exchanging paint in Capris

Brilliant, isn't it?

 

I have the fortune of being a motorsport marshal in my spare time and my favourite events are the HSCC meets. Virtually always have a historic touring cars race with Minis, Galaxies, LoCorts, Anglias, Imps, Anglias, BMW '02s, all sorts.

 

If you ever get the opportunity to go along to an HSCC event - go. You won't regret it! The drivers really drive them as they were intended.

I had a trouser moment at the sd1s. Looking forward to next week, I grew up watching it religiously in the 90's. Bring on Andy Rouse in the Carinas...

Excellent is the word that springs to mind I nearly had a trouser custard moment after seeing the spectacular shite on offer then they teased me with the xr4ti then clips of rs500s love tapping which will be on next time, I'm really looking forward to next week's offerings I think I'll need a box of Kleenex for those rs500s battling

Yep, watched this last night, top stuff.  I remember the Sierras, 88 was the first year Touring Cars really came back to telly and oh boy, what fun!  I watched both of John Cleland's championship years, not to mention those of Tim Harvey, Robb Gravett and others.  I was fortunate, I realise now, to see some of the Oulton Park rounds during this time, although crucially 1994 was a very bad year so I didn't get to see the Volvo estates.  Those will be in next week's show, or the one after, bet on it!

You'd never get away with writing a serious piece of 50s-era fiction and calling one of the characters "Tommy Sopwith". Just awesome. 8)

Shame your on late's next week could've had a replay of have a brew, talk some shit and watch some shite.

Ahhh but alas my friend, work calleth me to do my duties, to rescue stranded steering wheel attendants of whom breakdown at the most inconveiniant of times.

 

 

 

 

Unless I record it and we watch it next week?

It's up to you I'll be watching anyway but there's no harm watching it a couple of times, especially when it's sierras, Cavs, mondeos etc

ITV4 also has AX men, but apparently it is about some gayers in a forest and not a Citroen owners group, tossers.
