Many nice cars at snetterton this evening! GM4life was there too I think? Big angry sounding cts-v biggrin
I saw that coming in. Followed by a Mustang? And a General Lee rep.

I was followed in from the A11 by a Yellow Seat with a blacked out front badge. I've got a feeling I know it from PHEA for some reason but can't quite place the car!

If the G63 AMG was RNA 5H, it belongs to a very well known local car dealer/garage owner/rental car and van company owner. smile

I saw a black R33 (?) skyline with Fast Eddy stickers in Halfords Tuesday, and a red newish Mercedes CL (again, ? ) going past city college today.

Green Mk2 MX5 at Carindal Park McDonald's in Ipswich about 10 minutes ago. Spotted the sticker on the back as I was eating my lunch inside smile

Actually an all new (much older and comparatively gutless) Subaru for tinkering and track, but there's not much difference from the back. It was my first bash on track.

Ah yes, in the stripped out blue V6 Mondy wasn't it it?

Yellow Lamborghini Countach, registration 123 FAB, between A12 between Ipswich and Capel St.Mary this morning. It was loud even accelerating slowing from the Copdock interchange. I was willing and hoping the slow moving Rover in front of it was going to move over. I never seen one on the road before so it definitely brightened up my drive! Fantastic car.

It did OK. Just booked the evening as a bit of a day to see how it behaves. I had to run on knackered OEM pads due to a seized pin in the caliper so stopping wasn't up to much but the rest of the car felt pretty good for what it is. Going to be an expensive hobby... already got a shopping list wink

Yup - I was the obstacle in front of you and Gaz from Norwich to Thetford.

I'm pretty sure it does laps of the city all day long!

That's a great spot! I'll never forget the opening music for The Cannonball Run. Oh. My. God. cloud9ears
