had a great entertaining day at Rockingham in the sunshine with open pits and even gate crashed the team talk from the drivers to the sponsors in the Brookspeed pits smile

the number 6 RPM CC needed to finish infront of the Aston Martin to win the championship overall ! it seems RPM won saturdays race which put them just 2 points behind the AM team

for the first part of todays race number 6 was in fifth place behind the other RPM number 7 car, the AM infront was chasing 2 ferrari's, unfortunately for the AM team wink their leading car went off circuit at the hairpin after the driver change (braking to late, under pressure i guess) Colin jumped for joy punching the air as the number 6 and 7 went by along with a couple of other race cars, while the AM was driving rally style in the grass to get back on track, their race was over...

the RPM driver did the business and worked the CC up the field into first place ! to not only win the race but taking the championship title cool on their first attempt with the CC's. The number 7 car followed crossing the line in 2nd place, so a great day for them, congrats !!! It was great to see the guys get the trophy then see the usual champagne going every where







(Think the leading Brookspeed viper finished 5th)

Seen a few in the flesh now - one at Bruntingthorpe, one in Monaco and one in the Audi dealership near Bedford. Still think they look stunning.

Hey, each to their own eh? Would be a very boring world if we all liked the same car. At least we have one car in common we all love winkdriving

Had a test drive for about an hour the R8 is one supercar, you could drive it any day and all day its well finished, easy to drive plenty of room and you can spec it as high as you like.

Audi Icon or plastic high speed shed...............no contest.
