Irish contingent (Darren, Matthew, Robbie and me) chill out after a gruelling day on the track and dining on German pizza.

You don't like it then?

It's £56,000 car with £15,000 looks - certainly not a DB9 and I would most definitely go for the lighter the better (Colin Chapman's Philosophy).

Just why the weight! Safety I assume. But if we crash a car at 70mph+ even with a 5 star NCAP rating the odds of surviving intact are low - so let's accept the risk and lose the lard on the cars! Mini rant over :D (no pun intended)

OK I do like the car it's just using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

A couple more quotes from the Porsche 911 forum :thumbup:

It was here we picked up the Skoda boys and I was shocked at the way they managed to keep up with the convoy.................
The guys in the Skoda's joining in at 130mph for much of the journey was great fun also. I think all were amazed at the reletive ease they stayed with the Progressing pack of Porsche's. The little Yellow one was obviously up for a sporting drive as he chose most of the time to pull in front of me when other carriageways got cluttered.

I'll try and sort my pics and vids on saturday night.

Some great photos so far:D

Correct, but since the museum has now been demolished, along with everything over there including the shop and kart track, I guess it had to go somewhere.

You never made me sick, although I was slightly anxious when I felt your car being thrown out of the carousel a little earlier than the "line" should do. :P :rofl:

I found a few more pics...

Hi folks. Glad you enjoyed the trip, and all got back safely :)

Like the Porsche stuff, it's always nice for the underdog to have a triumph every now and then...

This fella wasn't expecting to be overtaken either.

Twice... ;)

After a half dozen pax laps I still hadn't worked out the correct etiquette for passengers :confused:

Gary that last lap was great fun - especially the exit from the carousel :thumbup:
