Default What to do on a Thursday...

I've been very busy lately, both of my new ventures are going better than expected and I was thinking about treating myself to a day off.

At 8.30 this morning my phone rings and it is a chap from Toniq, who have made a rather nifty kit car. I saw it at the motorshow and said I'd be interested in a test drive. The past three test drive slots they've had I have been unable to attend due to work commitments. Anyhow it turns out that they'd like me to go as their guest to an Autosport trackday at Bedford tomorrow.

Not only will I get to drive the bike and car engined Toniq, but also a Radical SR3 and SR4, some Westfield's, the Brooke RR, a Ginetta and an ADR.

They apologised for the short notice and I said never mind, I'd be happy to go regardless.

Report and photo's to follow tomorrow / Friday.

No one will ever buy your "I'm too busy" line again ...
