driving with......

[RS_Fiesta]

Francois Delecour in the Escort cosworth monte carlo winning car at donington in 1994.

he was guest that year (along with Steve bannister, Louise Aitken, Robbie head and Gwyndaff evans, and i was persuaded to get in with him for half a dozen laps.

out on track were various RS200's, GT40's, and RS500's and with one hand on the stick, the other on the steering wheel, he drove and passed virtually everything and hardly ever touched the brakes, absolutely amazing.

people who were ther said that from the outside it looked absolutely amazing, particularly coming down the pit straight in top gear and flicking it into redgate and down the craners...............

A close second best experience was at the same venue with former World hot rod champ Barry lee in 2000, driving, of all things, a KA. his car control was simply amazing.

great times

have also been in with phill collins and experienced a similar "special" back in the eighties, easilly one of our most gifted 'club'drivers, with undoubtedly the greatest sense of humour of any rally driver.

There has been so many over the years , goes along with the territory when you are building Rally cars for a living. The best would have to be Henri Toivonen , I have a picture in my album of the two of us in HHJ 703N with Henri giving it the buisness. Two of the Hairiest rides had to be :
#1 1986 Costa Smeralda coming down a mountain road with Jeff Fielding testing illegally his first time driving an Evo 450bhp 6R4 ( C96 KOG) Big drops with lots of sideways action, no photos of that but nearly soiled myself.
#2 1986 Burtonwood Airfield Warrington testing with my old mate Willie Rutherford on the ice , I had just finished the first EVO 6R4 for Willie for the Gwynedd Rally , flat out on snow and ice , probably the fastest ride I have ever had . see picture

[68 Bullit]

below we had just finished , and Willie even commented that he had never been as fast in a Rally Car
