Hello all,

Here's some snaps from an event I cover. We hire Bruntingthorpe (an ex-airfiled) and run cars down the 2 mile runway as fast as possible, with laser timing gear to capture accurate speeds. Some good fun corners on the way back too :D VMAX was on 5th gear a couple of months ago, some of you may recall a fleeting glimpse of my NSX.

The event is normally hugely oversubscribed, I may be able to get you in if you've got an interesting car. Which, of course, you have! Would be interested to see the difference between mine & a 3.2, or even better a Type-R

Elegant old beast

A very, very silly car indeed. 612bhp + 730lb ft = 200mph+ Managed 181mph roof down :woot:
