I've done lots of track days in my time, although lately not so many frown But last week, I had my best ever track day biggrin

A few images here: http://www.collinsclan.co.uk/Pages/Cars/brands2013...

Mine was the only Lotus there, but what an amazing collection of cars.

The Pagani Zonda F is beautiful. A real work of art. Even the pedals were like a sculpture. Mind you, at £500,000 it ought to be.

The F1 Heron was a little beauty and I had a fantastic chase and play with it round Brands for 3-4 laps. The F1 Benetton was rather too quick for the Lotus to keep up with, but I tried.....as it vanished into the distance redface

I've lots of video, but it needs editing. I had 3 cameras on my car smile


A great day and a great bunch of guys there smile

The Lotus was simply awesome ..... I just love it biggrin And so much fun, as usual biggrin

A quick edit using just the footage from 1 camera - my front GoPro. I will have better footage, using the rear GoPro footage edited in too, but that will be some weeks yet.

A very brief video from 2012. Car had softer springs and harder damping then. It handles better now.
