Only on the first Festival Italia. When they said "take it easy as there are no marshall out there" :saifi3::saifi3::saifi3:

Yep that was pretty sedate, do it at full chat and throw it into paddock, the feeling is immense. Booked Spa so will feel Eau Rouge soon which is meant to be even madder!

Just done a track day at Brands and it is an epic track. Along the Brabham straight at 120mph and then braking hard and turning into Paddock and then feeling your stomach go as you descend down the hill! OMG... anyone else driven it?

Yes, I drove an i8 & a Vantage V12 around the Indy circuit last year. The front heavy weight of the V12 around that corner, falling away to the left was a challenge but great fun - especially when it was not my car!

I may attend Festival Italia again this year but nothing's booked yet, I'm not sure I will have the patience to wait for the parade lap though if it's still scheduled for the end of the day when most have headed off home

Yes have done the Indy in both car and single seater, will hopefully try to do th GP circuit at some point soon - also managed to spin it in wet which was "fun" not sure the 3200 would get through noise check at Brands though.

Did Spa last year in the Porsche GT3 with RSR a great day, loads of fun although there were some seriously quick prototypes out some of the time, which were very quick.

Done a whole day there many years ago in a Fiesta XR2i and then Formula Ford single seater. Indeed epic. That is some drop after the straight and easy to get it a bit wrong.

No idea what speed I was doing as we only had revs on the Formula Ford. Felt faster than it probably was due to type of car and being so low part of the car.

I think I did it nearly 30 years ago shortly after my 17th and subsequent driving test.

I would love to do a day at Millbrook on the Alpine Circuit though. Had a few laps round it on a Jaguar/Evo launch day in all the new F Type's. Now that has some ups and downs with lots of camber changes!

I will be there anyway, I was not intending to charge for access to the suite but thought if anyone needed additional tickets I can supply them for the same cost as MSV and your more than welcome to come up to the suite. It's not a big room (restricted to 20) but MSV can supply a few buffet options if there was interest, however as you can imagine they are not "cheap" but are pretty good.

Not worried either way but offer there.

Lee any chance if a ticket for me and my daughter?

I’ve just checked, still get the message to say display passes will be distributed two weeks before only the paid for pass is printable at the moment. So I’ll be giving them a call later.

Have you looked at them / printed them?

No actually. Just tried. It generates a PDF with the ticket OK but the display pass bit says as above so:
Your display vehicle pass will be issued to you approximately 2 weeks before the event.
We will let you know when it has been issued.
Thanks,
EventsTeam
