No, you eyes do not deceive you the World Championship Powerboat British Grand Prix is on in Plymouth tomorrow, I'm down there with the British team 'Negotiator' so if anyone is going down give me a shout before 12pm tomorrow and I'll get you in to see them clear the bilge pumps after the race..

You might wonder.... but when I tell you they are running twin Lamboghini V12s with straight through pipes you might change your minds!

Having watched this on TV it makes driving an F1 car seem renarkably tame and easy.
