Did a delivery there yesterday...WOW really hits you how fast a car is when it blasts past you (about 6feet away) on the other side of the crash barrier (jag convertible BTW) according to the guy that unloaded me it had been doing 170 + for about 3 hours :shock: .. best part was he said they had a famous italian sportscar in a week previous.(F******).......apparantly the bang as the engine blew at 180 had to be heard to be believed ;).. and that was after 2 laps of their circuit!! lol
lots of funny looking vehicles about..plus about 50 crashed cars, nissan, mg, volvo etc!

My first employer used to supply (and probobly still does supply) all their data aquistion and crash test kit. I've had the Audi round that track, then on of thier drivers showed me how to do it properly/ We also had the Bedford Astravan clone round there too :)
Did you see the piles of smashed cars?

CAMERAS NOT ALLOWED due to nature of their business
Range Rover Blues:
Been to MIRA and Millbrook, and Boreham come to that. What a way to make a living :D
Funny thing though, when you see behind the scenes haw your Eurobox is designed and tested to destruction, then you see a £100+ supercar fall apart at about a tenth the life cycle testing, it makes them look a bit cr4p.
