Top hooning to the group of GTR, a Porsche (I'm crap with which 9xx it was) and a Mini Cooper S who we hooned along with for a while on the way back from Le mans on Monday afternoon. Cracking road for over taking that!

We were the Cappuccino and Legacy team.

That was us, my GTR, friends 996 GT3 RS and Cooper S.
Great fun and what its all about imo.Sharing good roads with other well driven interesting cars. The Suzuki was pretty agile around those roundabouts smile
The twisty uphill sections were fantastic although the fixed camera at the top of one section nearly caught me out ( Was actually passing a tanker at speed just as we passed it. Not sure if fixed cameras are something to worry about. Not for the moment I believe. )
Always wary of Les Gendarmes but with one or two close things and not being complete idiots its all gone OK.
Thought the stickers on your cars were excellent by the way. Saw the cars at Le Bounty as well.

She would have been more Agile if I'd not had a boot and parcel shelf full of kit (and a passenger, AND a full tank)...
Had to take it a bit easy, just after one of the showers had the back end quite a long way out on a shiny roundabout. which was fine as I was testing grip levels as they were expected to be a bit slippy after a shower. Came as a bit of a surprise to my passenger though.
Thanks for the compliment, we're quite pleased with how they turned out this year.

We were pleased you joined us in passing the chavs in the MR2 and van. GTR sounded hot when you finally hooned off past us.
