Driving Skills

[euan]

I take it all back. Until I can do this with a car, I cannot say I can really drive.

It takes a hell of alot to impress me with driving... seen so many people who think they can drive quick, which most people can given the chance, but havent a clue what driving fast is, and I have met some of the best drivers in the world... I will let my current drivers guess which camp they fall into :smilewinkgrin:, but even I was very impressed by that car control! I would love to know if there were many "takes" or if that was all done in one go, either way, that is a mighty good driver, in a very well set up car! :clap::clap::clap:

Oh, and how wrong would most of us get the spinning through the hanger bit, I am sure we would of have been spinning nicely through a cloud of tyre smoke and come outside in a blaze of glory... but I am damned sure it would be through the wall! And I just know I would have killed the poor dude on the scooter thing!!

I got this as an email today too.. Awesome skills:cool::thumbs up::clap::clap:

I do that in the local ASDA carpark in Dunbar, they really hate it when I go through the front doors and down the fruit and veg aisle and don't mention the telling off I get when I start doing dougnuts round the old wifie driving the motability buggie!!:laugh:

So you dont limit your spinning skills to the bottom of Duffas and the exit of the chicane then???

Yeah yeah very good Mr Noble........I only spun once on my own all year, granted it was a peach but every other time it was some other tool who helped me round :moonie:;)

[Burple]

I got that this morning too! :cool:
moments of note.. 2.19... 2.45.... 2.58... actually pretty much all of it..
Love the Segway baiting and the hangar stuff too!



I'd love a shot of a car that well set up to see if i *could* do it! :yes nod::yes nod::yes nod:

Me too, but I'd want a hell of a big run off!

As for the hanger stuff, it's a very sweet maneuver and it's SO tight, I think I'd have had a massive accident!

Brilliant - my mouth was stuck open in awe all the way through that - was proably drooling without knowing about it! :D:D:D

What brilliant car control. If I ever got a shot of that things it would conclude in a massive accident - no doubt about it!! :yes nod:
