He turned in with the two inside wheels in the air - but a lot of the supercars do that - as he approached the apex of the corner the car suddenly seemed to roll more and I was sure he was going over. He then managed to steer the car round the corner on two wheels, whilst blocking the cars behind. Incredible skill (or luck!); was worth the £15 entry fee just to see that!

Poor show dude! It was quite unusual for a British round as there was a fair few "other" drivers there - made for some great racing though!

Took "quite a few" pictures, so maybe a week or so before I have the pictures sorted and posted!
