VMax200 and Countach Lunch. What a weekend
Discussion
I'm still buzzing from last weekends combined trip down south to VMax200 and Rob's annual Countach Lunch.
I travelled the 200 miles down to Vmax on the Saturday arriving around 11am, with rain still falling. Entertaining to watch a few M4s and GTRs pull 360s off the line with a loss in grip and an amazingly loud Aventador that buzzed me as I drove to the start line. Whilst waiting for the rain to stop and watching the pair of 1-77 Aston's blast up the runway, I spotted the F40 pull up. I was immediately back to being a teenager again and had to pull the two 80s poster cars together for a few shots.
After a bit of banter with the owner and the photographers we decided to pull off an old skool drag race and did a few runs up the runway. Still awaiting for all the footage to come together but I do have a teaser video up on instagram as @tristecracing
I then spotted the lightening had been pulled out of it's hanger, so a must have shot. just wish I had more than an iPhone to take my pics. Thankfully some of the pros have stated to post good shots up of both cars together over the past few days.
After a night with AirBnB in Rockingham i had just a 3 mile drive to the Countach gathering. I even managed to clean the car (note wheels are black at Vmax but silver at Countach meet. Highlight was driving through the tunnel into the centre of Rockingham raceway with 7 Countach together.
I'll start to post some pics to this thread from my phone. Hope you enjoy them.
