Un-believeable.

The only motor sport I'm interested in. I remember going to the Lombard RAC when they used to hold it in the forests up north and there weren't any of these plastic spectator stages in the Millenium stadium. It was fantastic.
Mind you we weren't stupid enough to stand as close as those Portuguese fans. I have never seen the footage of the famous accident in 1986 before.
Ugh. Truly sickening.

Disappointing. I thought this was going to be a 4 hour film of a CND march

Shall make time for this later today. One year followed all five days of the RAC. Absolutely brilliant.

I thought it was going to be a particularly interesting story about a long game of tennis between Bjorn Borg & John McEnroe....
