British GT Championships July 09 Snetterton

Post by Stuart »

I was lucky enough to be a guest of Allan Simonsen, Danish supercar race driver and winner of the today's GT racing (courtesy of Lord and Lady Hayward @ APT)

We had a day of VIP-ness mingling with team owners of Rosso Verde and Rollcentre with their mighty Mosler.

Arriving bright and early, we were greeted at the gate and ushered in to get parked up. Suitable company me thinks

Principally Gary was there to deliver Mr Simonsen's newly tuned Evo and also to catch with Martin Short who owns Rollcentre and runs Mosler's in Europe. What a tough day ahead :)

Rather than bleat on about how cool it was and how many great cars were there, I'll allow the photo's to do the talking. It was nice to see Lloyd there supporting another less successful Ferrari team (sorry mate ;) ) and also good to catch up with Mr Spicer, officially the hardest working man at Snetterton :lol:
