+minstrelcat Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 As he has Prix in his surname, could it be something to do with motor racing? You know, I never noticed that before! Did you know it was motor racing or was it a guess? Anyway, I need a lot more specific answer than that. Quote Link to comment
+minstrelcat Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Mr Priaulx is the double world touring car champion. Kick a**! DING! He's actually won it three times in a row but in 2004 it was called the European Touring Car Championship. A pity he doesn't get all the publicity Lewis Hamilton does... Lisa Quote Link to comment
