I was there and it was a great day. I can't compare to last year as I didn't go but all the comments I heard were positive. The day ran really well with the Lamborghini LP570 just beating the Ferrari 458 over three runs to the fastest time and speed ( 172mph ). There were a lot of nice cars there, 2 x 458 and two of the new Jag XKR-S in particular. No photo's from me but there was a photographer there and he is going to upload.

I was there yesterday, first time for me too. Really good day with some interesting machines and the weather held out which was a bonus.

This was the funniest bit of the day.

Excellent, although if he did 'melt' a piston doing it then it must've been an expensive day! frown

Iol, hardly a victory when you can't do more than one run at 160 'cause your car is so highly strung it melts a piston biggrin

Rumour has it there's a 15 year old Nissan estate car that's coming on the weekend's run...........careful not to get stiffed by old school power twice in a month John!
