Love the way these thing's handle, have you watched the vid on YouTube of one going round Rockingham?
Almost look like you can plant the car anywhere in a corner and it will stick.

From the pics I'd say that's Castle Combe? :S
If it is fair play to you mate, very fast and scary track, one of quickest in UK i'd love to go.
Trackdays or events are class.
My Saxo is great and for the people who've been in (my brother especially) love the experience.
Would tell anyone to do it.

Its not Combe.
Thruxton is the fastest track in the country.
I very much doubt your car is "an experiance" around track.
That is all..

You clearly didn't read my post did you.

I've been on Croft track days and experience was class, I'd love to try an R8 day too, I'd want to go out by myself but I don't think you can.

O no ive been told by the resident ginger.. :S
@Tringaling, as flat as it is thruxton isnt that bad but you do need a car with some poke to properly enjoy it as the majority run out of pace around the back..
Shame they dont open it to the public though experience days dont float my boat as you cant give it full beans.

lol I believe you but it's hard to tell because that R8 is silver and the V10 badge on them is behind the fron wheel just after the arch. There's a Blue convertable one in Newcastle with them.
