Idris Elba's King of Speed

[TheLordJohn]

First and foremost, what a jammy git!
I'll guarantee he didn't even know who Paddy Hopkirk was until some researcher (who also probably didn't know) told him.
I'm a little jelous he got a go in a 6R4, too.
Not to mention a go in a WRC MINI and chatting to a hero of Drifting.
It's a longshot, but does anyone fancy letting me have a go (passenger ride I'd be happy with!) in a rally car or their special car? Lol.
I can repay the favour by fixing your car or selling you cheap tyres!

Thanks, Stuart.

Thanks - no doubt I'll be moved anyway.
I did see part 1, but Yank stuff isn't to my taste so I wasn't bothered about that.
Watching Ari Vatenen in the BMW is inspiring!

I tried to watch Ep1 on iPlayer.

I didnt make it far past the intro when he was talking to some yank and said something along the lines of... "his driver nickname was King of speed'"

the yanks turns n laughs and Im sat there thinging he sounds abit of a twonk.

I will try harder again later to watch it I guess as I noticed the jacuzzi trailer which Iv head local tails of the sauna and jacuzzi trailers making the rounds at the rallys over here.
