  • PPC's Will Holman and Ben Allen pay a visit to Darren and Miki, a Fast Ford loving couple who have the whole retro Blue Oval spectrum pretty well covered - and they're not afraid to use their cars either.

    Good to see G760 XOY again, I owned it between 2011 and 2016. Competed in RSOC Concourse for 2 years and won a good cup with it 🏆 (plate was G2 HTR back then) I know every inch of that motor 👍

      Appreciate the comments and glad you enjoyed it so much. Yeah, everything fell into place with this one. It was a lot of work with the amount of people and cars but we were very happy with how it came out and the weather played ball as well as the time of day to capture Darren blasting off into the sunset. Great to hear comments like yours - it's very encouraging 😃

    I wrote off an XR3i in 1986, it had 15 miles on the clock, the Lady owner pulled out on me and my SX175 Lambretta and in a decision that took maybe milliseconds to take I elected to hit her car on the A pillar instead of the war memorial to the left of her. I made an absolute mess of her car, door, pillar, front wing, roof and nearside rear quarter were I landed on my legs that sprung me back towards the car were all completely ruined. I make no apologies for the damage I caused. I still get a cold sweat seeing one to this day. I, for my troubles, smashed my face in, shattered my right hand to pieces and spent a year finding a new frame for the Lamy.

    • @ppcmagazine
      @ppcmagazine  4 месяца назад +1

      Crikey, that sounded like a terrifying experience - the side of an XR3i was probably a far better decision than a (I'm assuming concrete) war memorial. Hope everything healed up eventually!
