I took this pic of my V70 under the Top Gear Jumbo at The Childrens Trust Super Car event at the weekend. A brilliant event with around 170 Super Cars of all makes taking passengers round the circuit for two days. Its held every year. If anyone is interested I can post some links to some of the photos I took. https://www.dropbox.com/s/9vimvukkjgzyout/IMG_4177.JPG?dl=0

It's a great venue, I took an atom and a 430 gts around the track last year - great fun.

Well done. Its brilliant. I've been a volunteer driver for the trust for over ten years and help with the set up every year. I hope to have something fast enough soon to drive it myself though I have driven the Trusts old Toyota van round most of it. Andy

Tbh, saying you've driven the top gear track is ultimate pub ammo in most situations lol.

[QUOTE=Harvey;802815]Times please[/QUOTE] We drove the track backwards as it's faster and less technical (for the novice of course) so no times were given but the instructor gave me 38/40 so not too bad ;) I wouldn't recommend the atom tho. Heavy clutch, heavy steering, heavy brakes and most of all, for the "larger gentleman" effing snug! 430 gts was a fantastic drivers car however.
