Default S2000 SMOKES GT40

I was at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground today testing a St2 Rotrex 08 S2k. There was this lovely foreign reg GT40 doing a few laps. On a couple of occasions we were side by side. I was surprised (not as much as he was) that I was pulling on him, not a lot but noticable. He had to find out more? We had a nice chat about superchargers
Will be going back next week. Will video some action.

A real GT40 or a kit car???? My girlfriends parents have a GT40 kit car (still nice though!) and while its quick its by no means rapid.

I know how you feel, I have had a couple of occasions like that and realised it was worth every pound of boost....
Don't get caught taking pictures or video at Bruntingthorpe though! The security are supposed to confiscate camera's at the gate.
I took an innocent photo while there last year and my host had to report the incident immediately.
