Goodwood: Spitfire vs. Range Rover Sport

Post by WhisperJet »

Gentlemen,

I know it's marketing for the car -
but I definitely enjoyed this video, so I thought I'd share it here...

Yes.. it's not much of a race considering the distance the Spitfire travelled but well worked out for the Spit to get so close. All clever marketing stuff but a nice little vid nontheless ;)

The Spitfire specs are far better than the Range-Rover - and sounds better!

Unforunately cannot view that at work so will have to wait until I get to the library but...............for anyone interested here are the pilot notes for the Spitefire.

Why did I waste 4 minutes + of my life watching this drivel. And who is the little runt in the Landrover ?

The checkers mast was bent back :| ... I think the Spit was cheated!
