    That look amazing it must have cost a fortune to do all that, but I am guessing worth every penny.

    that looks like an awesome day out Neil, and like Greig said that could not have been cheap but must have been worth every penny...

    I have wanted to do something like that for SO LONG NOW!!! An NMS trip to Silverstone in the future is forcast I think

    Did you get to use the new section of the track then Neil?

    One day I will fulfill this dream

    That does look very good fun.

    I've always been tempted to go to Palmersport, I'm slightly obsessed with the JP1. It's VERY expensive though (about a grand for the day)

    aww, that must have been loads of fun.

    I done the Knockhill Rally event and the Xr2 and single seater event which was great. The single seaters are the best as you get so much feedback and can see your wheels right on front of you.
