Bruce Ropner and COB6008 just have to qualify as Legends


I have a story about Bruce Ropner driving COB6008 .... he holds the lap record for Croft racing circuit with a top speed of 70mph and an average of 50mph.

Doesn't sound all that fast?

.....It's the lap record for driving round in reverse gear....

That's a good story Glen. I know the recent owner of COB6008, so I ask him if he knows the story and whether he can confirm it.
