Can anyone tell what tyres those are?

Also interesting center caps in different color.
Looks like this happened in Holland.

I love it! Either a spin on a wet day or an attempt at proving rear-engine rear-drive's efficacy in the mud. If it were me, it'd be the latter :-D

If he had a pair of dykes in the car that would have never happened.

I think if you run hard you can sometimes end up like this.

I sure hope no one is there with a camera when I exceed the envelope!

I don't think it is Dutch registration as was suggested by saying "it happened in Holland". All Dutch plates have compulsary EU blue band on the left side which would've been visible under the untidy pohotoshop work. It looks like a UK registration to me.

Kind of looks like the "lake" that forms at Lime Rock between the exit of Big Bend and the left hander (heading towards the outhouse).

I know. There are many LHD sports cars in the UK.

The all yellow license plate like the 2001 series one below only exists in the UK AFAIK.
