Andy and Jon chat with an ex colleague of Andy's, Tim Crighton.
Tim grew up with his Dad running a race team, and competing around the country. 
He was also lucky enough to benefit from his Dad starting a Kart circuit, which led him to get behind the wheel himself aged just 7.
Fast toward twenty something years from his debut in T cars and he's just competed at Goodwood Members Meeting in two different vehicles, much to his Dad's delight as "wire wheels and carburettors are best".
This discussion takes in a Rover 827, a couple of Mk2 Golf GTIs, a Scirocco, a Calibra and a few different vans as well. 
It also gets philosophical, and dabbles with vehicle investments too. It's a gem!
We hope you enjoy it.
Andy and Jon.
