Must be something about Scotswood road at the moment.

Blue golf R bullying some poor car away from the lights at the East end of the business park with an orange ford focus behind him millimetres off his bumper _ well over the speed limit all the way to Scotswood bridge; after leaving the lights at the Audi garage, by the time I got to the through the next lights they were almost a Scotswood bridge.

It dicks like this on the road who put you off driving _ there is hooning and then there is just being plain stupid.

The Focus appeared the bigger knobber, so watch out for him. He's unmistakeable with aftermarket mudflaps around that have ASBO on them.

It's been a while since I've seen a Focus ST with the 'Asbo' badging! Makes you wonder why you'd bother doing that.

RS ** FUN Black RS4 Avant yesterday at the big Roundabout on the way to Cramlington where everybody goes in the wrong lane.

Think it had a Milltek or other exhaust, and looked great with blacked out trim and wheels. My ideal car.

Sat behind the tris-tec-racing guy (sorry can't remember your PH name) in his stickered up Evo as he tested launch control from the novotel roundabout towards the airport. Was going to join in but didn't want to show you myself up wink

I know exactly who that Focus belongs to, he was saying about how he'd raced one and got talking to the owner afterwards.

Well, that says it all. He admits to 'racing' along Scotswood Road. What a tool. It was a wet evening and they were swapping lanes between traffic. I'd be quite happy for people like that to lose their license.

Not sure I would risk parking an Aston Martin on the Groat Market!


Driving along today, I saw a black Corrado 16v on the CME that had crashed into the back of a Peugeot. Hope the Corrado lives. It was the Newbridge roundabout exit/Northbound slip. An absolutely dire piece of road. And accidents like that are the sad price of designing a road for LHD in the UK!


Also saw a 'dub' silver 350z on the way home too, massively outsized wheels on what looked like a substanstial camber. The smooth, flat dual carriageway is probably the only place in the North it'll run in a straight line!
