Soviet Mikoyan Mig - 29. Apparently purchased from the upmarket ' Ludicrously Expensive Toys r us '
Blimey, to think that all I got as a present as a kid was a Robin Hood bow and arrow - now much too dangerous for ElfnSafety

A spectacular display though.

The Alfa looks like ..

Cracking car.

This is rather good too, enough car to get you scared and keep alive.

Have to speak to Mr Bainbridge in Kendal, and see if he can fit something similar in the campervan :)

Ask Ian (914-6) about his T25 camper with a 3.2 Carrera engine and 915 box.
I drove it a few times - fabulous machine! 8)

Well seeing how my other vid got chopped, here is something completely different ;)

So to get my daughter into motorsport, A couple of years ago I bought a 05 Fiesta ST150, we do the occasional Lanes/Targa Rally in it, me driving and she rides shotgun, we then dual drive it in Forward Only Autotests so she gets to have a steer

Image

Anyway here is an onboard of a Multi Venue Autotest, with me driving. It was 8 tests, done blind, i.e. you weren’t allowed to inspect them beforehand, and we did 3 loops of the 8, so a lot of fun for 80 quid. The vid is of the 2nd loop, with me mucking up the last test, so you get to see it in full on the 3rd loop, but the exhaust had fallen off by that stage, hence the noise. A bit of Club motorsport, hope it amuses

That looks real fun, Mike. :bounce: Mervyn is rebuilding our 1970 Beetle for us at the moment, with half an eye on doing a few Targa rallies over here, and re-living some lost youth...…..!

Is there anything on worth watching in NI over the first weekend in January?

Cheers!
