Just got in from a fantastic day out...
I was invited by Vauxhall (VXRacing) to attend Brands Hatch and Im glad I went.
Got a free programme, VX racing cap, fry up, lunch, free bar (all day ) and I got to meet the drivers in our suite...as well as watch all the racing throughout the day from the roof terrace.
Cant be arsed to write so here are my pictures - you maybe able to tell my photography skills are to desired
This was outside the suite -engineless.
In the paddock
Front view in paddock
Quite small brakes. mg
view from the hospitality suite early morning
Hmmm...team dynamics made an appearance
Clark Curve - there were a few incidents on this corner. we were right on it
Safety car
Clark Curve
Gavin Smith
Fabrizio Goivanardi
Tim Chilton - not a bad job to have at 21years old
Tony Levoi's (dealership) VXR demo...my Saab 9-3 weapon is tucked up behind it.
Mr Bosch
Overall - a good day out.
Think im going to go to the Thruxton too when it gets there:smile:

Not as good as I was hoping tbh. Not enough cars, not enough real competition and some shoot stragglers like the alfa, astra coupe, civic and 3 series
The alfa was fuckin getting lapped!
