Wow mate, you kept that quiet, some breathtaking cars !!!!

Loving the Veyron, and the racing car (F1 / Indycar one).

Get rid of the Skyline one otherwise it might give Ben ideas !!

This thread needs a writeup though !!!!!

Some truly top class cars and I should imagine a nice sound about the place too 8) The Zonda still looks so special to my eyes, it must be all that exposed carbon.

Thanks Ian

All those cars was really the best of the best, the Mclaren was the 722 version which is the very top one they do.

I cant do a writeup as it would take me hours and hours but it was one of the best days i have had in ages.
The whole atmosphere of the event was brilliant.

The orange Bel Air was westwood's (the DJ) and he broke down on the start line and had to get the crowd to push him off the line!! :lol:

One downfall of the day was the police who was beyond anal, they was booking the drivers for not having a seatbelt on for christ sake!
It must have opened their eyes a bit when the A1 car lit the rear wheels up the whole length of Pall Mall! 8) :lol:

The Skyline was one of the worst entry's as it was a bit shabby and it was a GTS model also but thought people may have liked to see it on here.

May even go to the start of the Cannonball run in London later this year now.
