Well, I tried! In my defence, We hadn`t seen the course & I hadn`t practised hard stops & hairpins in Phil`s Cobra.
   Had it been my car, I would have given it an extra bootful of juice & powered the back around, and left big snakey 11`s all the way over the finishline...

Be honest Nik, you forgot to take your morning dose of Red Bull so you could drive like young Sebby Vettel (or 'Finger-Boy Juice' as it's known....)

Here's my latest video clip from this same event:
   
   Nik took charge of my Ram Cobra and went in hot pursuit of Barrie's AC Cobra Coupe, along a 40 miles stretch of road to Inveraray Castle.
   
   I'm afraid you'll have to excuse the shaky handheld camera shots... and the odd swear word – I'm such a bad passenger [:I]

The shakey camera makes it look much faster than it actually was, I don`t think we went above 57mph the whole trip, officer. [;)]

   I'm guessing when June realised Nik was tailing them, she probably told Barrie to put his foot down [:D]
