I know there are special nouns used to perfectly describe a group of animals, such as a 'shiver' of sharks or an 'ambush of tigers.

But what is the correct terminology for a group of RS2's in convoy harassing poor innocent super car drivers.

The Germans must have a name for it, could it be a 'sturm' (assault) of RS2's or a 'angriff (attack) of RS2's.

Someone must know!

Yup, that was a good day.

2.5% of the surviving UK RHD RS2s comprised 3% of the cars on yesterday's angRiff Sturm.

The cars were dispatched in groups and while Al and I were in convoy sturming one of them, the organisers decreed that Tom should be angriffing another bunch altogether.

And at no point did any of us think to group the three RS2s together for a pose! Eejits.

What a great day, the amount of people who said to me what power does that have and why do you have Porsche wheels!!!!

Great to see two other excellent examples of this truly classic car. 8)

Al, were three trucks full of kit really necessary?

Just an idea of the diversity of cars at the start in Sutton Scotney.

My boys, Dan and Tom (the two together on the right), gaze in awe at the assembled machinery. It's over here, chaps.

Good looking cars and loving the A 8O RS plate.
A lotta people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well. When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.
