Big mileage

October 2025 - 80,000 miles I think it was 34 Trophy’s that originally signed up to the Welsh Weekender celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Capsicum Red 182. For lots of reasons the numbers dropped and to be fair it was probably a good thing - that many cars in one group would have been...
