OK whose was the Tuscan S street racing on the ITV program "Drivers from Hell 2002"last night? Did anyone else see it or was I just hallucinating?

Yeap, saw it too. (Should have looked ahead before I put my post up). I'm sure some of the London boys here could enlighten as to who it was.

God I hate programmes like that. As I was watching it I got deeply cheesed off that MY driving freedom is going to be seriously eroded by the measures the cops and Government will need to take to combat that sort of behaviour.

Racing is best carried out ON THE TRACK!

I get 3 points and they get?

I could just about make out the words 'You Are Oh Too Slow' on the back - any clues!?

Seriously I agree with Don, but wouldn't you just love to try it? Just once. Show those Cossies a thing or two.

'You Are Oh Too Slow' reminds me of a brand new Tuscan in a petrol station on the N138 back from Le Mans this year. Registration UR 02 SLO

Totally agree a few years back there was a crowd used to gather at the local Morrissons car park on the seafront on a night time.The usual collection of cosworths, novas etc and also a Volvo police car! videoed by the local residents sitting watching the "entertainment"

Hey M&H - I didn't see the programme, and when JARCY described the Tuscan as having 'You Are Oh Too Slow' on the back, it didn't sound like a registration plate too me (well it would be a ing big one if it was!) Thought it was some dodgy sticker or something.

With all the fuss about road safety and driving standards, it might be more responsible if they made programmes showing how to drive safely and properly. Except that would be far too boring for anyone to watch, so they go for media hype instead. You only ever see drivers doing things badly, never well. How predictable....

Now every time the village jobsworth old fart - sorry, 'road safety campaigner' - complete with fake speedgun made from an old cornflake packet - sees a TVR he will shake his fist at it. Great.

I was only having a laugh, hence the winkey face at the end... ...thought everyone knew sixspeeds no.plate.

What was funny though was watching that "model" (looked a bit "hello sailor" to me) who was learning to drive... having spent £2500 on lessons, and he still couldn't get the damn thing off the line!

Old man was a good laugh though...! - thought he was going to punch his lad at one point!
