Thank you Harwoods for a great day!

We had a fantastic day today at Goodwood courtesy of Harwoods. I was able to drive my Mercedes C63 out on track along with an Jaguar F-Type R and Aston Martin V12 Vantage S and I was also able to drive those cars on the road along with an Audi R8 V10 and my girlfriend drove the R8, Bentley Continental GT Speed and a Range Rover.

It was fantastic and at the end of the day I got taken round for a hot lap in the V12 Vantage S by the instructor!

Another great day from the Harwoods team. Your C63 looked superb. I was in the black Exige.

Thanks. You're Exige sounded fantastic! I was stood in the pit lane, right by the track, as you raced past! Awesome!

Ah at least you got to drive the V12 Vantage S! I asked and was told it was too dangerous!

Yeah I did have to wait until the afternoon when the rain had eased. It was because it was on Pirelli Corsa track tyres. It was an absolute animal!

Here's a little vid of the C63 if anyone is interested, quite a cool perspective;

If that was your first run out at Goodwood, that was a very tidy drive, well done.

Thank you very much. I was being very cautious, it was still quite damp in places.

A great day and really well organised. Despite almost being 'Black Flagged' for my noisy DB9 we had a great day. It's always nice when Aston engineers are interested in what you have had done to your car.....

I didn't realise you were almost black flagged! It sounded fantastic!

How does one get an invite to such a day (if you don't mind me asking)?

I didn't get an invite, I just went on their homepage ( http://www.harwoods.uk.com/news-events/track-days-... ). I'm not a customer of theirs (yet) so I just paid and went along.

Well worth the money though
