Or maybe it's just that a Seat Leon TDi (with resistor mod!!!!111one) (?) is better than a Mondeo Ghia x with the RSAP body kit

There was a bit of an unofficial motors mini meet, and on a long straight poor ol' Fox's Mondeo wasn't up to keeping up with Jez's TDi monster

Oh and Conanius doesn't like B roads yet he's bought himself a Puma which is designed to eat up those roads ravenously

I have proof that he drives everywhere at 50mph ;o)

Austinpowers as ever is a nutter behind the wheel... And my bike riding was only just about good enough to keep up with him round the tight and twisting bends.

The "echoing" tunnel was good fun - imagine motorbike, long small tunnel and bike blatting through it at high speed :cool:

My chain now needs tightening it really is looser than a tart's underwear elastic - it got a good thrashing today! I have no idea where we were... I think it was near Swindon: Ashbury and Lambourn.

Oh I had Austinpowers™ Cam strapped to my bike so we should have some fun footage.

Oh and Tesla, yes I am French

What I *actually* said was that with my foot hard to the floor, Jez's car was *still* right behind me

Call it poetic justice if you may

Still your comment "... is this car quick or what?!..." accompanied with your facial expression of disgust and disbelief was brilliant!

Jez's resistor mod is awesome though.

Who me.... Driving miss daisy

Good to meet some new people and old again, was fun

Just sorting out footage, need to edit etc, but Will's bike through the "mini tunnel" very nice..

You could have driven a *little* faster really

One of the times I slowed down thinking I was going to pull over - but then changed my mind and belted off instead

I hope you managed to get some of the fast runs - I think my 2nd pass was the fastest (60mph dead of course

).

Jez has a Seat Leon like me (company one), not a Seat Toledo.

Sounds like you had fun.

Yes and?

so its nicely legal also.

Most of the time

Austinpowers has the vid and will be sorting it out - I don't have it yet - I'm on tenterhooks waiting for it too!

It wasn't a hooligans get together though, it was a "take advantage of the bank holiday monday to go for a blast with some friends"... sort of thing.

totally

im however, partially deaf from my trip home... 5.5k rpm for prolonged periods with whatever the hell is going on with my exhaust affects your ears somewhat

Try doing 80+ on a bike with no earplugs for 1hr

My god the video is bumpy and my riding is crap

Mr Powers is going to do a bit more editing - to keep the vid fast flowing... maybe if Dangerous has some time he'll be able to add his magic
