Mirror Signal Manoeuvre
Confident that his crew were going to win the race Mr Chambers decided to execute a text book hand brake turn midway through the recent Ariel head. However the crew were unwilling to carry out his request to try a reverse flick over the finish line.

The 8 had pulled out such a lead over ariel that I thought I'd try to pull a few donuts. Not easy in an 8.
The Family Lush hails originally from a cave in the Forest of Dean. Gurt now resides under a bridge near Welsh Back with his lovely wife, Gurtrude.
A former member of CBRC in the 1980's, Gurt was often found comparing facial hair with Brian Stevens, and drinking rough cider in The Ostrich.
Gurtrude can been seen in photos of late 1970's CBRC womens crews, who were all-conquering on the Tideway.
Cousins Reet & Randy have recently been seen paying close attention to female crews in the Prince Street area.
