I think it's more of an opportunity to see some great cars, talk to some interesting people and then maybe have a little play without worrying about the repercussions of speeding on public roads.

Many many happy supercar owners would beg to differ Michael, but whatever makes you feel clever.

I don't think 100mph flat out would be that interesting on a vmax run hehe

Well I've already signed up, now just to explain the justification to the Mrs as to why I'd like to travel a long way to play around with cars rather than spending quality time with the family.....err...I'll think of something.

So guys and girls who have taken their astons up the 2 mile run before, what speeds in which models did you achieve?

Our DB9 will not go past 189mph on the speedo. Hasn't run out of revs just seems to stop! It is the Auto though rather than a manual.

Always fancied a vmax day! Craig would I be able to bring my race car?? Would be interesting to play with some aero settings etc

Cheers
Mike
