The car VGreyhound thread reminded me of this fella - the great Scurlogue Champ- I was involved in the Greyhound scene at the time, and had the priveledge to see him race twice, Allways last out of the traps, and looking like a lost cause on the first and second bends, he always seemed to dig deep at the end and blow the opposition away on the last straight.
Can't help thinking, he could have sired some crackin Lurchers.
For those who have seen him, have another look.
For those who haven't - check him out and be amazed. Listen to the cheers on the 1st clip as he makes his move.
