Nice bit of PR

FYI: There's a news item on PH front page "NOBLE PROVES 159MPH IS SAFE" details are here:- http://www.pistonheads.com/speed/default.asp?storyId=10722

Good bit of PR.

Errr - the whole debate is that speed is dangerous and the public need to be protected against it, not that the cars can't do it, of course they can. Ergo someone demonstrating that you can drive cars this fast at MIRA is hardly "good PR", it in fact plays into the argument that speed freaks can't cerebrate.

The analogy is drinking 14 pints and still being alive the next day - then claiming alcohol doesn't harm.


Not clever

Paul, I take your point. I was only drawing attention to the fact that Noble had got it's name in the press again.

Richard,
It wasn't meant personaly, certainly not against you, but you do have to wonder what was in the minds of the guys that actually did it!
