As good as!!

One found out that the Milltek factory & sales centres are 10 mins away from the parents in Nottingham!!

Purchase & fitting direct from Milltek........ on my next visit back home!

Got a feeling I'm at the top of that slippery slope everyone talks about!!

I did not Robin though purely my choice. My wife suffers from a chronic illness so the boy & I don't have much male time & I wanted to give my full attention to him for that day - though I did see you & your four piper . He had a ball on the kids lap as we 'chased' the audi sport in our diesel bmw on the corners - mr audi got a wagging finger from the marshalls but what a show to be following it for the 4 laps.

Regards, Kevin.

Welcome Kevin. If I'd known 'other non-vag' cars were allowed on the track I would've taken Nicole out for a bit of tarmac fun!

^^^^
Usually CC are very strict about non-VAG cars on track and even being on display in the paddock! But it wasn't a very well attended day, so........

We all had a good time though.

Non VAG cars were only allowed in the "Family" session behind the saftey car during the lunch break.

Apart from a couple of Porsche's, there were no other non VAG cars on track all day i believe.

Yep!

I think we saw it just before I frightened the sh$te out of the old fella!

Robin I think as it wasn't busy & a kids lap they didn't enforce the issue though we did get a few funny looks. I was stuck between the flip quattro sport and a kermit green rocco so the blue bm had a low profile! Didn't stop the traction control kicking in at the chicane though - I blame the sport for chasing after the R8 whenever a gap had appeared. We shall just have to see if we come in ED30 next time.

Regards, Kevin.
