Booked this day at brands back in october as it was cheap at only £100 for the full day.
Wasnt that great in reality though as the track didn't get deemed safe til 10.30 due to ice and was under full yellows most of the day. and was then called off at 2 
And ive managed to kill my second car on track  this time there are pics and vids though
So if anyone wants any saxo parts 
Morning watching the white van tourning car possesion deice the track
Doesnt look too bad
bit worse
bit worse
bit worse
ouch
Fuck knows how it got a hole in it
Video to follow
Think I need to try a new hobby

Also, 10th pic... The car between the astra and the golf, did it sound absolutely insane like it was reving up to about 10k?!! I'm sure that was on the cs brands day 3years ago....

Mate, I don't think the r888s will fit on your vxr.
Would suit my clio perfectly.

I'm not sure ollie won, looking at the pics I'd say those tyres were already heat cycled and not offering maximum grip.
What is oliver building anyway? Don't tell me a corsa track car He's going to need more than some r888s

Nice Sunbeam I bet that would of been a hand full, but not as much as a Saxo
Sorry only joking, can't you patch it up and just track it?
