Oh I hear that young Billy Bellinger's Purple Peril (co driven by Jack who was slow, his words) won its class.
Must say the times being posted were pretty impressive, especially as its early days in the cars development.

Some great racing. Congrats to all who took part, in particular to the Plants, père et fil. =D> Richard seemed to struggle for grip through Luffield and let one of those pesky Porsches through as a result. By the time Richard had repassed, William was long gone! A typical English summer day - cold/dry/damp/wet! :lol:
