...if I recall, filmed by Tom facing backwards the whole way down while his mate Josh "ragged" Toms car (tail out most corners)...Toms biggest surprise was around 3:05 when after a harsh corner the van coming the other way was a surprise...nearer than it looked on film...

Rubbish i missed it by inches thanks to the rearwheel steering, it should have had yellow stripes so i could see it comming earlier!

Same happened at Spa in 2012. I came up behind them on the track just after they'd swapped drivers in one of the run offs. Josh floored it and Tom hadn't shut his door fully so went round the right hander before blanchimont with it wide open!

I've got their video somewhere which has a great clip as they approach the bus stop chicane. You can hear Tom shrieking when Josh hit the brakes very hard and very late
