Just a short clip, but just look at "Stars and Stripes" giving it the biggun!

Love the commitment and the relative simplicity. (Bit like me really)

I remember going to watch Thundersaloons at Snetterton many years back ! They were bonkers ! Sierra Cosworths with 7 litre v8's Honda legends with V8's there was a Sierra Sapphire cosworth with a flat 6 Porsche Le mans engine in the back ! Went like shit down the straights and sounded mental....
Awesome stuff.......

If you get the nod that they are back on anywhere (kind of) local, please post it up here. I reckon there would be a few of us that would get along to that

Im sure, and having asked a colleague who is an MSA clark of the course, Mallory are running an event with either the CSCC or the HSCC in August this year, will endeavour to find out date, with Thundersaloons as thats where a huge majority of them are located these days.

If that is a success there is plans on the wire to bring about a series next year to race them again across the country. We had one testing a few weeks back at Snett, awesome cars
