The first lap was a bit like wacky races and at one moment I was surrounded by about 6 German minis, they were like the Luftwaffe. A lot of the slower mini’s dropped out and one of the Germans was trying to overtake me on a tight bend and snapped the bottom arm retaining bolt which made him spin out into the armaco. nice bit of writing simon ,really paints a picture .  bet you were humming the dambusters or great escape ?
