Just back after giving rides for two days - I am knackered but Richard Pete Bacchi and Mal must be completely exhausted.

Organisation was perfect, standard of driving very high and a friendly and giving day by all.
The punters were great - I could write a book.

Thanks to the Marshals in fact everyone involved

As always a few areas that could be improved but I give it a 9 out of 10!!!

+1, brilliant day. Managed to take people out in both the 550 and my 993. I can't believe I'm about to say it, but the 993 was the most enjoyable. 550 was great and the passengers loved it, but the 993 felt *so* good in the corners whereas the 550 takes a bit of getting used to...feels like you're trying to fire an oil tanker through the apex hehe It's probably an absolute hoot if you're willing to hang the back end out every time and get through a few sets of tyres though....might have to try that on a track day some day smile

Nice pics, what is the model of Ferrari that C.Evans was piloting then, he certainly gave it the beans

A recreation of a Testarossa that won Le Mans back in the 60's. He loved it, drove it hard, and top guy.

Should anyone have any pics of my Blue 550 or Silver 993 Cab from yesterday, if you could post them up I'd be much obliged smile The only problem about driving in these damn events is that I can't take pics of myself hehe

Provisional amount just in, is approx £142,000!!!!!

To say we are chuffed is an understatement!! We will get an exact amount over the next week, but we haev far exceeded our estimation!

Thank you all for that took part, volunteered and attended

This will go a long way to The Childrens Trust.

Thank you.
