Here is the race from Saturday https://youtu.be/xFOSrFSvHI0

Another masterful editing job Philip - even better than previous ones with the outside clips included  :great:

Thanks again, I know that must have been very time consuming to produce, but a great result  :)

I know it’s great too win but man it looks so much more fun starting at the back and racing through

Your right Grant over the years I have had wins that have actually been boring ;)

Yes I have enjoyed the two outright wins I had this year but probably the most enjoyable and frustrating at the same time was the Siverstone race where I started at the back, something like 32nd and got up to 12th. The frustration came from the double yellows which meant I couldn't overtake at times and get higher up the placings.

You can see the race on my own YouTube Channel Philip created this year ( just put Clive Haynsford in and you can subscribe if you want to)

Here's the Silverstone Race

The Guy with the Sierra said he thought the blue flags were for the BMW chasing the Scooby and was looking at him in his mirror "allegedly"

Lee showed me the footage from his car on Sunday and wow, just nowhere to go.

As I said to him, with the Sierra moving that far out off the corner, I too would have presumed he would just stay out there with blues being shown.

Here you go this is Race 2 with the retirement due to a turbo hose coming off. Sorry it's taken me so long to do this one.

Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.

Many thanks to Philip once again  :bravo_2:

Should have left my wets on! Changed tyre's twice along with others before going out. As you will see, I lost loads of time working out where the spinning Sierra was off to as I was hoping to and felt I could catch the flaming Escort.

Didn't really matter as the boost pipe came off. I have now fitted a big hydraulic hose clip on the throttle body so it cant happen again, silly really as I had these on all the other pipes.

As I say the plus side is that with the car on decent slicks and holding boost, I'm now  sure the car can be  competitive in this Thunder Saloon series as  well  ;)     
All the best Clive
