Werent the minis faster than the FW girls...? Pretty mad suggestion that theyd be quicker than the Tuscan lads.



Quite!

Just checked the times in Autosport and the kids in the T-cars were faster by 7 seconds a lap. For those who want to know what T-cars are, saloons designed for 14 - 18 yr olds! Girls as well as boys!

For some reason, the lap record for a Tuscan at Knockhill has always been presented as 63.59 by Steve Gugliemi. Still is...check the web site! They have used this on many occasions to compare the pace of other classes to say they're faster than the Tuscans. This year I think there were times in the low 52s for the Tuscans. I've emailed them before on this bit it never gets updated. Not sure if the FW are posting times quicker than 52s

Tuscans this year - Lee Caroline: 52.421

Game, set and match Tuscans

(and I'll wager that Radical time was set by Ian Forrest who practically lives at Knockhill...)
