Good videos. Always thought the Bruce Taxis driver has a very odd (read crap) way of steering as he seems to shuffle the wheel differently at each corner...

I know! Knockhills new kerbs are a bit of a launch pad, McKeleny's unusual driving style didnt help!

I can see a couple of the touring cars landing on their side when the BTCC heads up!
At least I know where to watch!

I wondered what happened to the Sleigh minis! Did Vic Covey give him a big punt? Did he get away with that from the stewards?

Vic tried to go down the inside of tim,tim moved over to block him which gave tim a nudge and he went into david.

The results werent amended so i guess it was just a racing accident.

Not in my day, but I stand to be corrected by those more up for the current regs. However, I would add that as a safety aid gloves are V important, after all in a fire, how will you release your belts! Think about it!

I thought Tim got past Vic moved over putting Vic towards Grass then realised David was on bit of track he needed to stop

Credit to Tim overheard him talking to team at podium and he held his hands up taking blame

Strange, they are mandatory for Hillclimbs and Sprints. I suppose thats the MSA for you.
