Thats what driving nova's should be about not trailing cars to tracks to go in straight lines? It aint all praise the driver without the co-driver, the driver might aswell be blind!! dont get me wrong i love show cars but would sooner go slagging one round N.wales!!

wow. That last peice of footage! How quick does he enter that corner?

Great footage, great driver & lovely engine note. Just goes to show how capable a sorted Nova is in the right hands.

Well found/posted Dave.

back end is planted too. Not a lot of understeer really considering how hard its put into the corners. I wouldnt mind betting its an ex works Grp A car. 1992 after all.

the drift at the end of the gali vid reminds me of the andros trophy ice racing, them guys spend about 90% of each race doing that.

How awesome is the hanbrake slide on that long sweeping bend at the end of that vid!! Keeps it in check amazingly between the bridge walls.
