Must not giggle, must not giggle............... :lol:

Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.

A few of the Tredegar Park "Run" people drove past the shop (I shall be joining them for the show tomorrow) and I spotted a Mini, MGA, a couple of Spridgets, an MGB and a Swallow Doretti. I may not get the show pictures up before I leave on Monday, for North Wales and a week of narrow gauge steam action :D .

Me neither but needs must. :oops:


I spied a very pleasant sounding specimen of Jensen CV8 today, not one I'd seen before at that, which makes a change when the same owners run the same cars year in and year out in this frugal part of the region. :lol: (Yeah, we're all tightwads...)

Poor mog. It looks like there are plenty of parts left on it, from what's visible the shell looks surprisingly solid for a scrap yard find.
