I was there - quite a big WEC fan, so it was so nice to hear some V10s again! Really great day out - and only 28 quid. :)



All of the coverage from the whole weekend is still available on the GTWorld channel on YouTube as well.

Yep. :D

It's the Silverstone round this weekend - tempting! I think Brands suits the series particularly well though. It's like Le Mans vs touring cars.

Very cool. :)

Yes, the M6's just sound like a normal M6, which says a lot for the stock M6, but in GT company they are barely audible! They do have the best cherry bombs though.

This was a great moment...

Was stood not far from that moment on my stall was not that long after another car had slammed into the Armco one of 2 cars on Saturday we blamed the Pirelli signs as the cars normally just let it run along the grass and filter back onto the track but they were swerving back onto the track a lot earlier
