Video: Driving the Beast of Turin on the road is crazy!

Imagine the moment, you're making your way quite happily up a hill in a queue of traffic using the crawler lane when all of a sudden all you can hear or see is taken up by a bright red whirlwind of fire and explosions. You've just been overtaken by a 105-year-old Fiat.

That was the experience that presented itself to some unexpected road users in June this year as FOS star (and GRR favourite) Duncan Pittaway made his way to Goodwood driving no less than the Beast of Turin itself.

The fact that the Fiat S76 is road legal is enough to astonish many, but imagine the concern – and let's be honest fear – of unsuspecting attendants as it pulls in for a fuel stop, still belching flames from its open cylinder heads...

Could this be the craziest thing you've ever seen on the road? Let us know below!

Don't forget that tickets for the 2017 Festival of Speed are on sale now!
