The M3, JP1 and Formula Jaguar all had USB slots, so I've got videos of my laps in those ones too! Still have a massive grin on my face (and far too much adrenaline).

It's taking ages to upload the videos to YouTube, but here's the first one. Please don't mock my lack of skill, I'd never really done it before!

Can't pick a favourite, they were all incredible! Do really want to buy a Caterham now, though... ;D

Nice! Done a track day when I had the Dolly Sprint at Bedford Autodrome and it's an excellent track, loads of run off inspires confidence. You would have to be seriously unlucky to actually damage anything.

That's true... although the MD of my company did manage to crash a Clio quite significantly into the FD, driving a 911. Quite embarrassing for all concerned - and they did it on the far side of the track from the paddock, so no-one got any photos!

Doh! They could have at least done it in view of everyone!
We were strictly told to keep right and pass on the left and seemed to work. The stupid Exige got blue flagged to let the ageing Dolly tear past and p1ss on his chips ;-)
