Great skill to get it back on four wheels after reaching such an angle!

Lotus Cortina Silverstone

This car is currently up for sale.
In this clip, the driver has just had a penalty drive through the pits. He comes back to cross the finish line in second place.
The driver is working to keep the car balanced but is so relaxed. He scythes through the field including several Alfa 105's.
Great car, inspirational driving.

The Golf is incredible, constant state of drift almost.

Can't help wondering if original lotus cortinas changed gear like that, went so fast and does that steering look incredibly light ? Still awesome never the less, only wish I could drive like that.

Great clips Simon.
Funny, before I saw Tim's comments I thought the same about the gear change. He does make it look easy though, smooth and relaxed . :shock:

Love the golf, what a combination 8-)
