Do you know Alex then? Small world! Hes driving the 89 cecotto DTM for the car club and hes taking one of his CSL's

Im not going out with him as a paying customer - iv known him since i was 8. Doubt il get too many laps with him tho, he has to take 10 people round during the day. Not to mention il have to peel nelly out of the passenger seat winkeye

I might be cheeky and ask for a ride if i see you on the day :D i need to be shown how to drive properly!
