Ewen Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Sons just come back from Nurberg...four cars left the UK only three came back. His Corrado made it, 5 laps done, back in one piece, but one of his friends Saxo is no more. Some interesting cars seen, a few in disguise...see if you can identify the two door mule.

colsoop Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Saxo's are scary on the limit, i bet he lifted off in a corner and it stepped out, after that it is out of your hands,they are near on impossible to hold. I was lucky enough to find that out on a track day in my old saxo at 90 mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
