i remember speaking to 2 guys one track day at knockhill. they had just bought a mk2 golf gti from a scrappy for £50 and trailered it up to knockhill. they took it on the track even though it wasnt roadworthy and the guys mate had a shot of driving even though he didnt have a licence. that worried me as they wont care if they smash into your car as theyll just be dumping their car after the days driving anyway.
i believe its all changed nowadays though.
