I can remember when travelling on a motorway looked like that but most cars back then would struggle to keep going all day at 70mph my 1.6 diesel Astra has no trouble it is just going at 200.100 rpm at 70mph in sixth but the best thing is that it is done 80 mpg

There were people wearing Borough 19 tabbards, so it must be around the Kent area. The end credits list the clubs.

Britons have probably invented about 85% of different forms of motorsports.
the cameraman has an eye for the lasses
as soon as the music kicked i started taking drugs.
Wow. You Brits used to call Rallycross Autocross.
Also Autocrosses are very different events here in America.
Who dislikes this and why😐
Love it 😆😆😆
