I was there for a bit, standing at Quarry and wandered round to Bobbies. Wow was it ever cold though!
Loved the yellow 360 Challenge car with the exhausts poking about a foot out from the back bumper thumbup

Most probably silencers to get past the local opposition to anything louder than a gnats fart on a racetrack.

Cold isn't the word! Bleedin' perishin'! I walked the circumference three times!
Some good racing though - the Radicals were fun and I loved the A35 bombing around. Some of the sideways action of the Capris, Escorts and Rover SD1s was entertaining too. hehe

Nah, it was just easier for them to do that on the day rather than repack the (recently purchased, same as the red cars) silencers.

Also noticed that it was a road car with plates?!
Was lovely and warm with extra layers on - had to have an ice cream to cool me down wink
