saw these at coombe and silverstone...
so is it a genuine sport?
or just a trackday for tuners?
personally i really enjoyed watching them and will be looking forward to seeing them again.

That thing is some weopon, its something like 800 hp!!

Mind you there's an awful lot of bonkers machinery out there, think modernised groupB monsters take to the race circuits. Its a great concept, race against the clock, anything goes more or less, you build it & go race it.

The programme was on the other night (Motors tv, I think..), the programme was badly put together and pretty unwatchable. Didn't do justice to what is a pretty good form of motorsport imo..

the gobstopper is one impressive bit of kit.
