I await further details...doesn't sound like one of those official parades they have in places like Rotterdam and Moscow. I question what "Formula One cars" stands for

Good stuff.
Whilst everyones out enjoying the F1 show, the scallys will be round everyones houses on the rob! Defo up for the that (the F1 that is not going on the rob). Another point... Isn't F1 about glamour, money, style and all that?? Which begs the question... Why Liverpool! Last edited by MrTTraces; 3 Mar 2010 at 10:54. |

£10 says the locals can have a set of wheels off quicker than an F1 crew.

Of course Liverpool used to host the British Grand Prix. It also gave us Sid Watkins.

ps, shame on you guys perpetuating the stereotype of the no-good Scousers, we are not all like that!! Ok ok, just messing with you, there are an enormous amount of scals here who think it's hilarious when I say 'Excuse me please' when I want to get passed. |

An official record of 350mph in round figures I believe, however although it was built by JCB I am pretty sure it is not what most of us mean when we use JCB as a noun (meaning a vehicle not a company) the JCB GT though is pretty close!

There has been suggestions of a display/parade through Liverpool for a number of years but nothing seems to have come to fruition, although a few years ago there was an event at the Aintree GP circuit. The Liverpool Motor Club is still very active at Aintree and I think may have been involved in the earlier proposed Liverpool Parade, but the Aintree Circuit Club has recently been re-invented and is trying to get some sort of car racing back at the old circuit. Hopefully if anything does happen, these 2 clubs will be involved as they know an awful lot of people in the area who could do a lot to make it work.

At least the noise will drown out the whiney, world-against-us scousers.

Well luckily F1 cars no longer use those bizarre hubcaps.
