And I thought it was only a static display car!!

Brave to take it out amongst all the other cars, always seem to get one thats trying to be a Vettle.

You going to the Pride of Longbridge, in it this year???

The Brands Indy circuit is my favourite track. I first did a trackday there in 2004 and got so deceived by Paddock Hill Bend that I had my 300zx completely sideways all the way through the bend and so glad I didnt spin! (for anyone that has never driven there it is VERY steep and has bumps at the braking points before it although it doesnt look it on tv).

Only done it in RWD and 4WD though so thats on this years agenda!

They used to. Stopped now, as it takes up too much time in the week to pit track back to normal, and the loss of corporate track days!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shame cos that was good marshalling/racing.
