Not so fast Neil, I know Tracky to be genuinely dedicated to the green cause and he takes his obligations incredibly seriously. I mean he’s not going to stop motor racing or cut down on owning five cars, but then that would be a massive overreaction and a pointless sacrifice…
All power to Tracky for trailblazing the green agenda, you’ve got my vote mate! ✊

Yep - cleaned it after the photo. It was clean when I left, but the 200 mile journey clearly had an impact!

May look at getting one of these - looks like a good route!

The last two weeks have shown that the rear end is an absolute dirt magnet. Does anyone with mudflaps think they reduce it?

Don't think mud flaps would have any effect at all. Our cars as most cars these days, have the bodywork designed in wind tunnels. And as they pass through the air, a vacuum and swirl is created as the air leaves the tips of the roof spoilers. This pulls all the dirt back against the bodywork.
You could see this differing effect years ago, as boy racers fitted spoilers to the rears of their cars. And how much more dirtier they were than those without.
