Default Baby your flathead? Naah. Thrash it up Prescott hill. VIDEO

Two runs two cameras on each run. One smiling Scotsman.

A short teaser clip from an upcoming longer video. Taken at VHRA GOW! event at Historic motor racing hillclimb venue Prescott.

You might like the shots showing the front suspension and steering working hard.

It was a great event. The rides are thrilling enough to really get the adrenaline pumping. The setting is very peaceful and picturesque. It's the Bugatti owner's club home turf so it's very smart. How they let us hoodlums in is a mystery, but they always say they enjoy our visit more than most other club weekends.

My mate Big Ian in the blue T shirt is the Scotsman in question. You only need to look at his face to see we were having a good time.

Ziggster, it's a Thickstun.

Thanks for all the responses, the video has had a lot of hits. I think people are watching it more than once.
