With many thanks to my new friend on this website :winkey: We have now found out a bit more history on my cup car.


Im sure you all know my car (if not check the members cars) but what i have always wanted to know is 'who raced my car back in the clio cup days?'

I found out last year that my car was raced in 1993 by Ian McIntosh by finding a copy of fast lane magazine from 1992 where my car was featured.

But this discovery has got me all excited again.

Tonight ive found that my car was indeed raced in 1991 by a ex fiesta challenge drive John Wadsworth as number 27.

Interesting stuff must be great to find these things out as every little scratch or mark on cars like you will have an interesting story behind it and it'd be good to know them

hi mate, my car was sponsored by fast lane, no other was. The sticker on the bonnet just confirms it. sorry if i wasnt clear - was excited when i posted this up last night.

Also no other red car had a yellow roll cage mate, so its easy to spot. All cages were grey, red or white from looking through the video - i get easly excited rob but this is the icing on the cake for me. Might not be to everyones taste though :wink:
