Goodwood FOS and the Gobstopper

Post by Darren Slone » Fri Jun 23, 2017 8:56 pm

Some of you know that I have been friends with Matt Clark, son of Roger Clark, for the past 30 odd years, he married swmbo' s cousin and she's godmother to their eldest daughter, Matt is heavily into Subaru's and has built one called 'The Gobstopper' it's awesome, driven by his brother Ollie Clark and has done remarkably well in time trials and Motorsport , indeed it's won quickest up the hill at Goodwood for the past 2 years, the Big Boys don't like it and have threatened to full out this year if RCMS appear, so they've been binned so the Big Boys don't get egg on their faces again, I've 'liked' the FOS FB page and asked why they're not there this year :driving: I doubt I'll get the real reason if I get a response at all, I think it's outrageous tbh, David and Goliath and David smashed them :driving:

Here's Ollie winning last year and pipping McLaren who weren't best pleased afterwards ..

When was the last time McClaren won anything? :lol:

Love the Skooby and what a great dining table that wing would make. :thumbsup:
