Default Most expensive cars you have been on a trackday with??

Was at Donno today with Sean...

and these 2 Turned up!!!! and were NOT holding back!

sounded incredible!

one of my mates is into Ferraris and so I sent him the pics. He says they would have been shaking down before the Goodwood revival... He said they are part of Lord Blanfords collection. He said hard to value but £15million quid as a guess!!!!!!!

out there... mixing with the other cars!!!!!!! imagine rear ending one!





who can name the cars then... anoraks at the ready for the Red one. The green one is easy!

I had an S65 on the track at Silverstone, and a new E500, but neither of them come anywhere close to the Ferraris on here.

I'd settle for any one of them though!!!

There's not a lot of older cars that do it for me, but the 250 and the Lambo Muira are 2 that do. That is absolutely gorgeous

Edited to add, that the red one looks very rare - especially as I've never seen one before

Lovely looking cars.

I saw a 4.5litre Bently 'Blower' in the outside lane of the M40 yesterday heading South around Oxford about 5pm

my favourite cars of all time, the red ones a 250 gto '64 (1 of 7), the green 250gto is probably worth about $25m these days..

Another 250gto variant, the infamous breadvan..

There's a guy that has a Gallardo "track car" he goes to knockhill. I wish i could be less sentimental about cars, i'd worry if it got damaged, even if i got a payout for it, fair play to folk who just go for it.
