That Was a nice looking car. Too bad about the poor suspension, or poor driving, or both.

probably something broke or hit oil besides so much HP in such a short wheelbase is a handful,i wouldnt drive that deathtrap.

ps...he musta pissed off alot racers by taking out the tree like that.i wonder how long it took too fix everything.

I get pissed if someone blows oil down the track. I can't imagine what the guys waiting in line there must have wanted to do to him...

The "A board" at the starting line says Santa Pod Raceway, which is in England. I think it's a British car called a Hillman. That, or a Ford Anglia. Either one would be from the late 50's or early 60's. I.........ah............er.......... saw PICTURES of one! Yeah, that's it; my DAD showed me PICTURES of them. lol See? Us old guys are good for something after all.

Glad that you have a sense of humor...good to see some of the "older" crowd on the website assisting us "younger" guys .
