The untouchable Red Bull heir in Thailand - BBC News And I thought the Austrian was the owner! This article takes the shine off the brand IMHO

Whilst I am happy to be leaving I accepted there would be a price to pay for doing so. To me the only price paid so far and I acknowledge there is plenty of time still for things to move further, is the currency drop and uncertainty. However from my perspective whatever happens it is very...

You need to watch Death Race 2000. Always thought Euthanasia Day at the old folks home was amusing but now my Dad is that age so having to correct my humour!

This is meant to be a little light hearted and definitely not comparing the two against each other. No comparison in very many ways! However both a bit precarious at the moment so I see this more of a genuine race! Could it be better than F1 even?????

I can confirm China is his real surname. I drove the sofa around Silverstone on a charity day but chickened out at 45 mph, but that was the early 3 wheel version not the current I believe 4 wheel version. 87 mph must be seriously scary!

A question; Which leader is going to last longer? Donald Trump as President or Jeremy Corbyn as leader of Labour? Both seem to me to be doing stuff that will not be tolerated forever, so who will crash and burn first? Both seem to have good survival instincts but neither playing by...

Sorry didn't feel minded to respond before as thread was going off track. I worked in central London for 7 years for the railways. I was based in an office above a main terminus. This period of time coincided with the troubles from NI although not as bad as in previous periods. I had four...

As was quoted in the House of Commons today Those who carry out such wicked and depraved actions as we saw yesterday can never triumph in our country and we must ensure that it is not hatred, violence and division, but decency goodness and tolerance that prevails in our country (Liam Fox)...

This only snobbery about having an age-related plate (the "my original replica is older than your bastard kit car" thing Any car with a Q plate is one with an unknown age. It applies to non kit cars too but generally is perceived to be a moniker of a cheaper quality kit car which may not...

JB and Phillipe are free......

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdLVCqcCcs0 This is all I could find on You Tube from that day. I think my copy of the clip is on video cassette!!!!!

Had a sit in your car in 2004 when Top Gear (pre Clarkson, Hammond and May era) did a piece on it with a number of GTD40s in attendance. Filmed at a test venue local to me known as Longcross, now a film studio location. I wonder if the video is still about? It was about 8 minutes long. I...

So there I was in the hospitality suite at the race track on the Isle of Anglesey (north west tip of Wales (that's on the western side of England ok?)) at the annual Race of Remembrance an event which is organised by Mission Motorsport, a military charity, a 1000 km race to raise funds and to...

Its them pesky Russians again no doubt looking for more Clinton emails !!!!

Apparently if you had a £5 accumulator bet on Leicester City winning the football premiership, Brexit happening and Trump becoming president your pay out would have been in the region of £12,000,000!

On the picture with the exhausts, won't the welds fracture over time? You have different rates of heat expansion yet all solidly fixed together. Did you consider springs as often used to hold exhausts to rear brackets? But looks a great project!

Even just a few years ago this competition would have had many replies. Now not so many interested in F1. Franks competition is perhaps the most interesting aspect of the final races as it is genuine open competition!

Eibach should have the details on record.

Bit soft for track use. Eibach do a dual rate spring set up for the GTD that is very comfortable on road and track. Effectively rising rate springs. Bit pricey but I think worth it. This spring set up was based around Koni dampers so talk to them and see what they say. The rates you state...

20 odd years ago I made a bespoke trailer for my GTD. To overcome the low ride height of the car I fixed the trailer ramps/deck at an angle so the front of the trailer was about 12 inches higher from the ground than at the rear of the trailer. Then with some light weight but a bit longer than...
