Now, if he'd been on the TRACK doing whatever he did - he'd pbly just 'ended up with a bit of dust or dirt on the car.

When I came to that in the article, I went back 2C if I'd misread something and this actually had happened in Hollyweird - and the DRIVER was from Australia!

I'm showing my son those pics. Maybe he'll stop asking to drive the FGT or at least start understanding why I have a pre recorded "NO" answer I replay for him each time he asks!

I'll show is Mom too!
