and I won Dunno how! He had a 1.4 badge on the back. It was a P reg 5 door in red but the body hadn't been looked after as the red was a bit dull and to bumpers really needed a polish.

Anyways, was behind the dude and moved over to the middle lane as the road goes off to the left and he just stuck he head out the window at the lights and asked for a race, i was like OK; this being my first ever race.

He shot off at the lights, i was doing about 25, changed into 2nd and just at him when i flew past; changed to 3rd at about 45 and then slowed down for the camera.

I'm sure this 106 is not a 1.1
