Sounds like a fun time guys.

When I sort out a quieter exhaust for my car I'll have to pop along to donnington before it shuts for the F1 Rebuild

Just a few of the pics of the day (courtesy of Steve) hope they keep you both going until i send out the CD :)

Skinner: heading out!
Image

Jon: heading out!
Image

The three best cars of the day( :wink: ) setting off on the first lap
Image

Jon was out 6 laps before he realised the back of his car was on fire....... :wink:
Image

Skinner didn't care that his was too.... :shock:
Image

Garage MR2: Mines the shiny one! :shock: :oldtongue:
Image

"Jon, wait for me!" :oops:
Image

Cool old school motor: pretty quick on track :shock:
Image


And last but not least: my motor not the quickest of the three, but definately the cleanest :lol: :wink:

Image

Unfortunately i DON'T have any pictures of the 450 bhp Vauxhall Corsa (complete with rear drum brakes) #-o , the Peugeot 205 with a straight roof or the Ford KA that had Jon so scared :wink: : sorry maybe next time!

A fantastic evening session made all the more interesting by the company, until the next time! :wink:

Your car was impressively clean Andy, I swear all that extra drag me and skin had slowed us on the straights ;)

Great photos, can't wait to see the 'action' dvd :mrgreen: #-o :mrgreen:

Good pics Andy, personally I think it doesn't matter how fast you are you should be judged on the size of the flames.....
