3rd August Rockingham The Race School
The day after I returned from Germany, I was over to Rockingham for a Supercar day at Rockingham. The Race School had put on another full day with customers being able to drive anything from a Ferrari to an Aston Martin and all points in between. For the day I was reunited with an old friend : the Aston Martin Vantage, a great car that makes a wonderful sound!

1st & 2nd August Nurburgring BookaTrack
I flew out to Europe for BookaTrack’s track day at Nurburgring on 1st & 2nd August. My role, along with 4 other instructors, was to act as a “roving marshal”. This involved circulating the track keeping an eye on driving standards & any breakdowns, incidents etc. For this task we were given some very nice BMW 1 Series to drive. What an amazing circuit: I managed nearly 800 km over the 2 days. Can’t believe they actually raced Formula 1 …
