It might have been when Andy was unfortunate to have a meeting with a couple of straw bales, thankfully it was not as bad as it could of been.

I saw your run on the tv Andy, on Sky Sports on Sunday evening. Very impressive! You were 3rd fastest at one stage....
Tony Jardine was commentating and I notice a fair few cockups while he was trying to sound knowledgeable!

He must have Googled 'Andy Robinson' and drag racing cos he said you were Pro Mod champion a few years ago also........ so I guess he was getting his Andy Robinsons mixed up! :lol:

I've seen some footage now, shame he didn't go a bit quicker, maybe he did so on another run that wasn't televised.
