Not been to Lydden Hill somehow! Sitting on top of paddock opposite tumbledown - I can't think of another view of a decent (IE not an oval) racetrack anywhere in the world that can better that one. (Admittedly I haven't been to every racetrack - in the World!)

Group B Rallycross >>>>>>> every other form of motorsport.

Edit

Just recalled an interview with Schanche once and he said something like "When I hit the brake pedal twice for a corner thats when I'll retire"
