Defeat in Glasgow 🟣🏒🐲


8 months ago I bought a Pajero Evolution. Since then it’s been stripped and pieced together 1 rare part at a time. I translated 300 pages of Japanese for goodness sake. Tomorrow it’s finally finished… mechanically, at least. Next stop, the colour and the all important rubber. What a feeling!!! Big thanks to Charles Gates Racing, somehow Charlie still loves it.



Massive accident at Silverstone in Porsche sprint. Thankfully everyone OK but massive barrier damage #btcc
