Default My free trackday at Silverstone

Just a quick display of my amazing talent and fantastic car!!

I was a lucky boy and won a free Silverstone track day last Sunday, I ended up taking my magnificent 11 year old shopping cart 1.8 Focus, it's an 'LX' model which obviously means it's more track biased than the 'L' version and is almost as highly regarded as an RS model (probably).

Only mods before it got thrown round track was a full service and 5.1 fluid, other than that it's as it came out the factory - a long time ago.

Was'nt going to bore you all with this until I found a Youtube video from another car of me going round Stowe (little circuit in the middle).

Few pictures from the day of the magnificent Focarse at it's best.....

Select Silverstone, 23-01-11, Focus W537 (only Focus in the list)

Daddy Quick took these -








And the video I have just found which made me laugh out loud at work. The car taking the video was a black Mini Cooper with fat tyres and lowered suspension, looked very pretty. It's only 45 seconds long, you may notice something overtaking it right at the end, turn the volume up and the passenger says something really hurtful........

NOBBERS

I think my Goodyear Efficiancy 15/60/195 tyres done a pretty good job!

And yes it was ME driving, not an instructor/racing driver/my Mum etc..

Now awaiting the barrage of p1ss taking and abuse........
