All Shot on the Isle of Man 2008

Footage of my 1988 325 track car competing in a hill climb and on atrack day here on the Isle of Man. Big thanks go to Alan to sending me this and to his mate for the filming. Alan owns the really tidy Chevette with the 2ltr Astra trick lump and get's it sideways on every corner / bend as you will see by the in car footage - I really want a quick rack like him! 8)

The diff on my beemaa was on it's way out (now fooked) so no real back end action unfortunatly..plus a classic coming into a corner way too fast, showing off to my son and ending up on the grass backwards :mad:

If your not taking out cones , quite frankly your not pushing it :cool:

Enjoy - I did :D

Your car sounds good on the hill climb - whats the latest spec? - looked at your website - is that up to date? I've just started building hill/track toy & looking for as much info as I can get.

Really good to see it being used tho!

Hmm was working, don't know what's happening there... There is some footage on you tube under lloydie38 but it's poor quality and it looks like I'm doing 30mph tops!

Quality! Looks like some fun. What's the website (mentioned above) with your car spec?

The links you've posted seem a bit tempremental. This link seems to do it tho.
