Enjoy as I am sure you will!! :D :D :y

Somewhere i've got a video taken by the passenger when I tried a Vectra C GSi 3.2 in the 100+ lane.... Millbrook don't allow you in that lane now unless you hold a Millbrook drivers pass  :'(

So it was you who spoilt it for the rest of us?!! ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ;D ;D ;)

I was soooooooo tempted to go into that lane and really put my foot down, but I thought better of it and I was very happy reaching the 135 mph mark without getting caught!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)

Think it's all down to insurance  and 'Heath and Safety' now.... Think Millbrook would have their rears sued if someone had an accident with todays 'sue everyone' culture.

I must admit it really surprised me how Vx just let us select cars and go out on that track, as well as the 'Country Route', unaccompanied with pro drivers fast testing cars (two Aston Martin's were going around whilst I was on the track) without any major restrictions, apart from "stay out of the outer lane" and do "not exceed the 100mph" limit" ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) :D ;)

In this H&S age quite amazing and bloody lovely!! ;D :y
