    New gadget - Trophy Wine Bottle Holder!

    I always keep a bottle of red in one of the side pockets in the rear. Probably not ideal if the worst happens, and not as useful as a fire extinguisher, but handy! :) It just gets better and better...3 bottles of wine and still being able to drive quickly around the corners. Thanks for the tip.

    Three Trophies on track

    Hyb, Silverstone full F1 circuit (3.2 miles) last Sunday at trax, think this was the brooklands corner/complex just before you swing around onto the pit start / finish straight. I found it a daunting track especially when you have only 20mins to get used to it.
