Enjoyed this too, most of the guys doing it have a whiff of teh mental about them but that's what makes it interesting - that and i'm from great yarmouth so i wondered who the guy from there was. Looking forward to part 2 - want them all to break records, that or i expect to see a huge ball of flame but the rider/driver surviving with minor scratches and bruises.

Did anyone watch Part 2 last night? I won't spoil it for any that didn't as I think it's repeated this Thursday, but it was great to watch. Fantastic spirit displayed by all at the event, and brilliant to watch as people help out complete strangers. Also great to see that some people simply will not accept defeat  Should see more of this type of programming from the BBC as they really do seem to have a knack for getting beneath the skin of the content and treating it sympathetically - letting it speak for itself.

I thought he said 160, even more unbelievable. Can't get too excited about bikes doing low speeds, even the speedliner thing was a bit of a damp squib, but overall a good prog. Bring on Bloodhound. Jon

Must admit I felt a bit sorry for the two who had the supercharger fail. Cheers Steve
