Great pics!  That's next year's calendar sorted, Jan to Dec all covered!  :notworthy:
+1 your photography's come along in leaps and bounds. Would really have loved to have seen the Lotus out there too!

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Amazing pics and write up, glad everything went well.

I missed this due to the little one, but DN6 is already booked along with Spa in Oct - I've got a hard on for it of such ferocity, it could poke holes in a cheap door!!
Sideways yo!

Well, my impression of knowing Darren (the trackdays organiser) is that he quite rightly would take a very dim of view indeed of that kind of driving on a trackday. Those at The Nurburgring who give permission for such trackdays which include the F1 circuit (or part of it) require responsible and safe driving. Using it to show off drifting and creating tyresmoke which can potentially reduce visibility while other cars are on track is appalling.

Forge should be ashamed of themselves for associating themselves with such irresponsible behaviour.

I'm a car enthusiast and enjoy seeing tyresmoke and drifting as much as the next guy/gal but absolutely NOT on a trackday. Am I right?
