So I get in the car, turn up the boost, and leave them in a cloud of black smoke.  |
Nice one Malteser

Seriously though when i am sat playing the xbox or playstation with my kids and they kick my ass on it (i'm sat thinking how the hell did they do that), that's when i get reminded i'm no spring chicken Lol.

Age is relative...I havent got a clue how to use a PS3, but, I have driven round Brands Hatch for real, while he has only pressed a few buttons.
Also am reminded of my dear old grandad, who I got my passion for cars, and speed from. As a young man raced motobikes at Brands Hatch, when it was a cinder track, owned a Riley, and even in his later years, I remember him taking me out in his Downton prepared Mini..........The sight of people looking at this 70yr whizzing past them, is still in my mind nowdays.
I may be in the 36+ catagory, but thats only what it says on my birthcertificate. I mean last night i spent 3 hours watching Thunderbirds on DVD..........
