Keep on Rallying and the movies coming they educate a younger generation that its not all Scoobys and Evos etc etc. Your A Man with Talent behind the wheel of a car take my hat off to you sir.

It was the greatest love story of mine for about 9 days. Until I managed to get my dick beaters on a Mk3 2000e Tina. Oh Oh.. 2 days that MoFo lasted. Farmer wanted 300 quid just to put it back on 4 wheels & tow it out his field. I said he could keep it .. Oh so little did I know .. But in my defence they were 100 quid throw aways back then.

    Crazy driving on the limit-that's how it's done.I know another crazy Escort and driver-Christopher Neumayr's Ford Escort RS2000 Mk2 built for hillclimbing-also fast and mental.

    Find me a sexier car going too fast into a corner and I'll bare my arse in the co-op window...

    It's always Great to see someone who knows his car & his own limits and doesn't push either too far. BRILLIANT to watch, I don't think a full length "movie" would be long enough, you would always want more, Many Thanks for uploading ..
