no a bit of a 4wd fest by the looks.

Standing start and 6 hairpin turns,
kinda makes it hard for anything with HP and 2WD.

Hopefully the Sky footage will show a bit more.

I knew a bunch of people in random camera shots, and my car was on it for like half a second. They got Clara on film (no surprise) and Dave Lee laughing while spectating.

Ross McKay's interview was funny - not often they have to censor swearwords on that show :lol:

I can say these things to you
'Cause I can turn on any one
Just like I turned on you
I've got a tongue like a razor
A sweet switchblade knife
And I can do you favors
But then you'll do whatever I like

the 1st time in 6 years i dont enter has to be when it finally gets tv coverage...
but yeah something other than the top 8 would have been nice, it gets a bit repetitive quickly
it is getting real hard to get a good result in a non 4wd turbo there. i've been close to the top 16 basically every year but my time has dropped from around 3mins to 2 min 40. i get faster by result stays the same
