What kind of race is that? It is more like a race for 4X4.

Not all race tracks are race tracks.

I’d swap seats with him, good stuff.

For those of you who think its some kind of hillbilly thing, you might just want to google Brooklands Hill climb. Its a historic event in England that goes back over 100 years and draws all manner of cars. The hill gets progressively steeper, much more so than it looks.

Case1906, I think they are all pretty safe there. Its not exactly Killer B rallying.

Nelly, I am sorry to hear that you are so short on time you are concerned about the 41 seconds, and if I could give them back to you I would. Personally, I will gladly take any opportunity to watch a BS in action. It could be going up the hill, down the hill, or driving loops around a circular driveway in reverse while the owner leans out the window eating a cheeseburger. And thats why I posted it.

Actually, I may want to see that driveway thing more

If you look the event up on YouTube you will see a huge variety of vehicles, particularly some great vintage stuff, taking part in a motoring tradition. If I could, I would. Just cos its still there.

But here is one more C class:
