Mallory Park 2011 Andy Robinson Ford Falcon v8 supercar in CTCRC's Classic Thunder RACE 1
PWR built 1999 Falcon TURN YOUR TELLY UP !!
Poor start, Had to defend heavy on several laps into the hairpin- cars weakest spot, spool diff causing wheels to skip round & then as coming off the corner
too fast for 1st gear & bog down in 2nd
Lots of traffic, making it quite a wild drive (fun but fairly dangerous) & causing the gaps between the car infront & one behind to come & go
was going to edit it down but something happening on most laps, so I can bore you with the full race
started 2nd finshed 2nd 4 secs off lead
F1 Driving Mallory Park May 09 in car David McKenna driving Tyrell
Awesome in car footage of David McKenna driving an ex-works Tyrrell F1 car around Mallory Park. 1st few laps warming the car, tyres and me up - then we're off !!! Feedback from the crew was "you're were on it, that's how it should be driven, you were very quick, you owe us for some new tyres and you blew the cobwebs away with that one"

Took 2-3 laps for my tyres to come in
Had a mega race until oil down on almost every different line for every corner from about 12min on over, virtually impossible to drive, so sloooow through luffield
Finshed 2nd well happy considering how much faster the skylines were
Best time a supersonic 58.9 but still not fast enough
Dream come true to have the 2 big Auzzy V8's door handle to door handle
