BXProject

on the BBC Iplayer. BBC4- Jim Clark the quiet champion. It is still there but not for much longer so grab it if you can.

Who??

My beard is going grey, but the face to the name eludes me!

One of the best F1 drivers ever...... 60's........Left the road at Spa I think it was, and returned in a box.

Oh right!
Bit before my time.
That said I aint bothered with F1 for a while now, it all got very boring.

F1 is utter dogshit and is as much of a sport these day as paper areoplane races from school kids. Clarke was a legend though ditto Jackie Stewart.

yeah , whilst the tactics shown in Bahrain were clever ( if ever a race was won on pit stops this was it), the race itself was about as interesting as watching paint dry ( apart from Button overtaking Hamilton )

It's wank mate. Boring overpaid tosser 'a' almost overtakes overpaid tosser 'b' and people pay hundreds to watch that shite.

I used to love F1, but yes, it has gotten unbearably dull.
Back in the day though it was great, when it was about driver talent and not how much money the team had to make things quicker.

I quite fancy trying some PCT if anyone knows of any events (bugger all round Preston)

Bus racing in Birmingham perhaps?
Thats always good fun!

PCT?

Marty if you like motor sports wait for the BTCC at Oulton. Always a belting day out/weekend and you can get quite close to the action

Nahh, I want and excuse to go off roading in the micra...

PCT - normal car & average-or-underpaid driver & passenger goes from (lower) point 'a' to (higher) point 'b' ?

Would've thought a BX 19 diesel wouldn't do badly for "trickling". Sound like something I'd be very surprised if Vanny hadn't had a go at at some time or other. A Hillman Imp doing this would've needed a bit of ballast or a passenger on the bonnet at times, from what I remember of them

Marty: cheap Frontera, disused quarry. Pay £25, stay all day, have best laugh EVAH!111one!!11
I'm currently on the look out for a cheap Frontender by the way with tax and MOT if anyone finds one.

We used to use the 205 for PCTs, that was a good laugh. I reckoned that if you stuck the 1.9D lump into a 205 with a 1.6 GTi box you'd have a good car for the job. A BX would be that bit too long for some sections I think...
