I hope this doesn't shock the current owner, if it's still on the road etc-

The original Westfield Slalom 😁

Jeeez I remember that - back in the day there used to be a little sprint/auto-test circuit set-up where you could rock up and drive your car against the clock, it was part of the Stoneleigh Show from mid/late 80's (ssssshhhhh don't tell the MSA) 😁. Saw a few cars hit the kerbs and limp out 🤕. All long before the risk assessment and H&S team stopped the fun.

 

Russ Swift was a regular, used to turn up with a few mini's (proper ones) and do some demo shows on Avenue M - usually in front of the WSCC stand - Area was simply roped off and off he went, J-Turning and sliding around burning some hard pumped up rubber

Was he saving up for a bonnet?
