(Taken from an Elvington Airfield website)
"In 1953, the US Air Force moved into Elvington and totally rebuilt the airfield for the third time. Earmarked for the bombers of SAC."
and The GIMP has the present owner of Elvington making an official complaint to Javelin Motorsport about The GIMP - lol lol lol
btw - SAC = Strategic Air Command (nuclear bombers B52's etc etc)
Ok here goes
I get called to one side by the head marshall (Colin) and I have a quiet word put into my ear'ole.
"We are getting concerned for the safety of both yourself (me ! - lol) and your passenger.
The way that you are driving is causing us concern and you do not have a roll cage !!.
(I try to argue that I sound a lot faster than I appear to be going - my tyres have no grip etc - lol lol)
The owner of Elvington (who was with myself and Colin at the time) then said the most classic statement I have ever heard "You are damaging the tarmac in the way you are driving round the hairpin"
LOL LOL LOL - Yanks/SAC can land a B52 Bomber but The GIMP can't do the "Wednesbury flick" and take a most unusual line through the hairpin - lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol
You can all decide as soon as I get the video uploaded and a link will be here soon.
