This was an excellent video but I, like you, was awaiting some cold start excellence

Anyone know what the gentleman Kevin Johnson does / owns?

I think it was his brother Hugh and his hard work that brought the ££££'s in

Life Science Venture Capitalist.

Enjoyed this 20min documentary on the rebuild of the goodwood circuit

Fun little video; surprised by the lap time

Just got the FoS on

Valkyrie broke down half way up the hill about 7 minutes ago so around 12:22.


Lambo special at 12:59 sounded absolutely pornographic.

Eye wateringly embarrassing for Aston Did they also say it stopped yesterday? To be fair it sounds like a phenomenal thing when its going...

Yes it broke down yesterday as the Duke of Richmond was invited to drive it to finish off the day. Broke down right outside his house on that occasion. I saw the breakdown today too but luckily the Red Arrows provided a good distraction. I did see it run this morning at about 20 mph though

Any indication of what was wrong with it? Sounds like they've pushed themselves too far as an engineering exercise doesn't it.

The engine just cut out both times and rolled to a halt. It is an amazing engineering exercise though, it’s basically a Le Mans prototype - even getting in is a bit silly with the massive sills, tiny door apertures and very inboard driving position. I reckon it would be awful to drive on the road!

Reminded me of this great FWD vs RWD battle at Bathurst which I'm sure has been linked before, but what the hell

Thats a tuck up for the other 2 though. That Cayman is a GTS with Ceramics and so on, £80k ish is hardly a M2 or Alpine competitor !

The GTS is the older version with the 2.5 Turbo, rather than the new 4.0 n/a. No idea how much they are though in the second hand market.

What race series is that? It's an eclectic group of cars racing together.
