Was acting the fool recording myself talking on camera at the
end of The 1000 Entries Rally, When one last car gave 2 marshals a jump.
P.S No smart comments on my ugly mug.

I showed them the footage after the event. You could smell what he left behind in his y-fronts. Im not sure but I think they were on their was to start cleaning up the stage. Maybe like myself they tought the last car passed and all of a sudden a evo say's hello.

Ya it an interesting bit of footage. Whats the chances of saying
"we will leave you with this" and going right to the next car and then nearly recording 2 marshals near:busted.

I watched that over and over again to try and suss if it was some very clever video editting, but it blaitently isn't. Quality! However, my guess would be they where replacing the beacon after Nesbitt "mushed" it... ;)

Ha ha, well, you gotta finish in style... :yes: I was worried for a while after the finsh that my unconventional method of breaking the beam would result in a stage max. Fortunately not the case and we held onto the class win. :yahoo:

I think the timing gear was replaced by that point. The mini was edited in just 2 show what can happen, but where it starts from me talking its all real.
