Ah, yes - the side-effects of our evening feast - http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/ ... =2&t=44284 :lol:

At least we boys had the decency to use Silverstone's toilets in the morning, someone who for the moment shall remain nameless, almost melted the PortaLoo :evil:

By the way, the race was won by a Ferrari 430, I'll dig through the camera when I get home, must be some pictures of it there :roll:

This is a classic Honda Civic and I wonder if this is really a race car since this is the first time I saw a Honda Civic Race Car. I think it needs new honda civic gas cap if it still looks like that one.
