Dunno who that was, I've got a twin rounded off square exit exhaust.

You would have known if you saw my smokey exit!

EDIT: Not that my exhaust smokes, that came out wrong. Ahhh, can't stop with the puns!

I did a couple of cheeky donuts (safely!! haha) before leaving to celebrate a wonderful day.

I missed your smoky exit dave but i did manage to see the nice swing you took side ways a warwick services into the carpark, one day i'll have my lsd and learn how to control a drift like that, nice one mate. Karan also told me and zaust about you doing a 90mph drift round the circuit 8O I bet that felt great :D

Don't let these pics get on BMWCC, we'll be banned! How camp do me and Si look in the children crossing photo!! Hahahahah!!

One more to add from me, courtesy of Demlotcrew. On the way down we hit the limiter in fifth on the A1(M) (autobahn section), and I said 'No way am I doing that again'. It was getting late, so I put my foot down, and almost did the same again. :roll:

John, I knew your car would win all day long mate! It is stunning and it got my vote! Those smoke front lights and your wheels really finish the car off.
Well done with the win mate!
Look Forward to seeing the car again next year.
