I don't have the full list yet but there are some interesting highlights... Ultima GTR, Ferrari 488, race E-type, Merc C63 AMG DTM etc etc.
Come and say hello if you're there, mine's the green & yellow Caterham (with its new engine).
Hope you both enjoy the day.

I think we had a similar conversation a couple of years ago, but I'll happily take her round in the Caterham, new engine & all.

Sounds good I'll look out for you on the list and hopefully get chance to put her in the seat

More screams from her means go quicker

Plus I'll jump in seat too
See you Saturday

Lofty - please park the Noble in the Supercar Paddock directly opposite the Strawford Centre building. We may have a marshall about but if not, please park up tidy. If you want to volunteer to marshall it for the whole day then get in touch please. I'm assuming that if you run a Noble you are a great judge of what makes a beautiful car and therefore would qualify for the Supercar Paddock!

I'll be taking passengers in my caterham..

And I promise not to hang about! It's only 150bhp - it looks like a shed... but the old girl and the fat bloke driving promise to make passenger rides fun!
(White caterham with cage fitted - number 559 - from L7 Club speed championship)
