Soldato
Thanks to the missus I got to drive one (only for a measly 4 laps mind ) at bruntingthorpe on Saturday. Still haven't got the grin fully off my face.
Shame the instructor wouldn't let me "tank it" fully, as I was itching to push it past 150mph. The most I managed was about 130+ by the fourth lap. Sheesh I was just getting used to it!
They purposefully lay the track out with coned chicanes too so you can't get anywhere near "too fast". Shame coz the full length of the Bruntingthorpe straight (old airfield) is 2 miles long.....
Hardest bit? Getting my large frame out of the fluffing car!!
