Just as they rocked up to the circuit in there cars and was blabbing on about how the locals have some serious machninery I could have sworn a Yellow RCR SLC was caught on camera on its way round the track.

Must admit it looked nice,

I suspect this post may attract a negative reaction from the "RCR Appreciation Society" but it looked to be driving under its own power, no bits dropping off, or on fire in anyway!!

They/he have been keeping their heads down since the last N&S thread they/he started backfired.

Sorry to keep you waiting chaps I hope you weren't holding your breath but I've got other fish to fry, unlike Mr SC that seems to have nothing better to do than to argue on here.

Very nice to see any SL-C turning wheels under it's own power, even if it is for only a couple of seconds. God knows it's been a long time coming.

Must say it really is a good looking car in it's street design, but not so keen on the track rear end though, but how this new found fame can been seen as an unmitigated success is beyond me.

Jo........think this may be the same car also?

sorry but decided to delete link because it could have been construed as bashing RCR and that's not right.

was a copy of an email from the previous owner -Ernie @ Breathless Peformance

There's no accounting for taste.
