...was a lot of fun. Don't think I've pushed my car quite so hard but loved every minute. The tunnel runs with the Murcie and THAT Datsun (650bhp) were breathtaking and it had the Lambo beaten. The owner of the Lambo is bringing his Enzo next time as he doesn't like being beaten!.

Blimey :shock: Nice array of motors there.

What was the feedback on the A610 from the crib owners?

They invited me because they haven't got any Alpine owners in the Club. The feedback was really positive and I've got to say it really didn't look out of place with all that very expensive machinery. To see and hear that Lambo and the Nissan under the tunnels at Manchester Airport is something that will live with me for a long time (even though they dropped me like I was in reverse!) Most people I spoke with had a 'soft spot' for Alpine's.

The Rolls Royce was rediculously tall. The top of the bonnet was higher than the roof of the Lambo.

Mate that looks like a right good time buddy!!! She look good even in that company, but does look small in size when next to the GTR and Alfa.

Talk to me about this club i think they need two Alpine's and even a mad dog supercharged Clio to join!!!
