| I have never seen that before, thanks for posting a link and Naturalbornclarat for putting on the tube for all to see. I had heard of it but wasn't too sure if it was true or not but now I know it was. Loved Phil's attitude when he raced F1's, even when he was fenced with the car in bits he'd just get out with a big grin on his face. Is Phil still seen about the raceways at all nowdays? |

| Excellent vid. If anyone has a film of the team racing at Odsal in the early 80's I would like to see that. No rules!!! [that I can remember]. Not surprised they didn't do it again. I don't remember who raced apart from John Dowson possibly, anyone got any more info. |

| Its the north vs south in regular cars that I was referring to. With none or few rules I was a bit unsure of what I was going to see, but there was no holding back and a fair bit of damage. Don't know whether Bammy offered any incentives to pay for damage or not. |
