The Red Heally is set up nicely too and driven very well. That little TR took 1 Heally, 3 Lotus's, 2 marcos's, a spriget and the Mustang.
As the track dries he get's caught by the HP.
He came in 4th overall. I can't make out the lead car in front of the red Heally.

Love the way he late brakes into the curves to get his nose in front!

Didn't spot the Spit, but I think a related clip shows a Lotus as the leader..

Great video, I thought he was bumped a little in the first half of the race - also, did he have to take a penalty route or something late in the race?

I think he just missed the turn and took the detour

Yea, he missed a corner and took the 'off ramp'. He seems to drive better when 'in traffic'.
