It's OK I got a pic if you two dripping wet as you came off under the Avon bridge.

It's a bit blurry but I will post it up.

Had a good look round the asbo. Really love the engineering in it. It's brilliant!

Would love to see that piccy!

I agree with the engineering (I can say that as I did not build it!) It is awesomely made and goes like stink. I can outbrake almost anything into a corner, change direction on a sixpence and it'll stop on it's nose - it comes in at only 450kgs, very light even by kitcar standards (though actually it isn't technically a kit car)

I am very much still learning to drive it and where it's limits are. I need more brave pills though as the car is very much more adept than I am. A real credit to Robin Davies it's creator.

To other guys driving around Brizzol. Is it always like that....Drove from Cornwall up M5 to Lincs. from just past Taunton to Glocs was a nightmare, both ways, in the afternoon. No accidents just mega stop/start. You poor feckers. Is there a viable alternative as I have to drive up to Northants this Friday.

Pretty much. I drove to Failand to a local bike park for a mess about last night. 3 junctions of the M5 took me half an hour. It's like that every day Southbound.


Back on topic. I let a lovely black / gold Griffith complete with relevant plate out of a junction coming out of Thornbury yesterday. Car looked lovely whoever you are. I was in the Chavcic Type R that's currently covered in whatever 40,000 seagulls ate 3 days ago.

PS you're welcome thumbup

Quite often seen in Lansdown golf club car park too. Also see an AMC Pacer in there quite often.

See that pretty much every weekend going to Bath/Lansdown P&R - keep meaning to stop to take a good squint at that Pacer. Never seen one up-close. Probably best left as is.
