So whilst a load of you were slumming it with the plebs at Santa Pod, I was rubbing shoulders with the upper crust at the Aston Martin Owners Club Centenary Meeting at Brands Hatch in the scorching hot sun shine they had imported for the occasion.
There was a full racing card and some demonstration laps from a range of their racing legacy (with one of the cars being driven by Bruno Senna). The racing included some AM only races, as well as their Intermarque challenge which pits some heavily modified Astons against Ferraris, Porsches and the like. There was also a round of the HRDC Classic car series.
Here are some pictures what I done took :
