The thing that always impresses me about watching footage of Clark is how bloody smooth he is. Car seems to want to push at every corner as well (which is supposedly how he liked it)

Contrast his style with some others of the period, who drove the thing off the front end and slid the arse through everything.

Total legend :thumbsup

This has to be a stop off point on one of our road runs... would be rude not to.
Well it moves... might as well make the most of it....
