Silverstone 2007

This video was shot by Paul Thompson and features my GTD40 (registration 6GTD) on a test day at Silverstone, the day before a test of the car by Evo magazine at Oulton Park. Also featured are two original GT40s (white and yellow cars at end) and a lovely Viper Competition Coupe owned by Bjorn Arnils. Unfortunately the viper had a crash later in the session which put a downer on an otherwise great day.

Mike Wilds, the famous racing driver drove my car
for the first few laps and then I take over on the video.

Thanks to Paul for such great footage.

No timing was allowed at the track day as it invalidates the insurance at the circuit. Anybody caught would be sent home immediately. This is pretty much standard practice at general track days in the UK because insurance is becoming such an issue.

Abolutely flying down the straight. Sounds great and looks great as well.
