Ever wondered what it was like to go round the Lydden Hill rallycross circuit in a fast Mini? Watch and see, Terry Moore at the wheel, enjoy -

Remember the rallycross on World of Sport on Saturday afternoons? Happy days. Thanks for sharing the clip.

Nope, that is actual time. Terry Moore and his Swiftune Mini really are a force to be reckoned with.

My pleasure. I used to watch rallycross on Grandstand back in the day when it was mainly Minis and absolutely loved it.

I'm convinced it's sped up.
Try slowing it down to 3/4 speed.
The body movements give it away👍
Also compare to Lance fosters in car RallyCross mini vids.
Anyway, whatever. Can't beat of retro RallyCross!

I have just timed a lap of this against a lap of another race and the difference was 1 or 2 seconds, I rest my case.
