A very dear old friend visited me at the College today and guess what he had on the back of a trailer, attached to his (ahem) Mercedes?

It was a track prepared Renault 5 Gordini turbo homologation special, the mid engined one. :-P

I got to drive it around the peri-track and one or two runs along the runway. :-P

My god that thing is fast - too fast for me I have to tell you :lol: The only time I'm happy travelling at that sort of velocity and with that sort of acceleration is in something with wings :)

In fact, I think I overtook a Typhoon and left it for dead :lol:

BEAST of a car and a beautiful thing.
