I was actually quite gutted to see Matty beat the beetle in that run! a Dzus fastener worked loose and jammed itself in the Gear Shift mechanism of the Bug... he ran a 13 with only 3rd gear!!!!! :surprised:
*EDIT* Just noticed a couple more things too... .my Mrs is lined up behind the beetle,... and that Video was taken not too far from where I was stood on the VIP Gantry...

That chariot has been fully crash tested too...... it acheived an NCAP rating at Big Bang a couple of years ago when we (drunkenly) pushed it (and it's pilot Polly) into a bin that we didn't know was full of concrete.... then ran off giggling like children!!!
(Her Fiance was the cheif protagonist BTW...)
