Amazing, once in a lifetime Mclaren spotted!
Thursday 31st Jan 11am... 1 man, 1 massive hike through ankle deep mud in office shoes and a suit, 1 massive spotted.... x 8!
Bruce Mclaren's Canam Car
James Hunt's 1978 F1
Ayrton Senna's 1988 F1
Mika Hakkinen's '99 F1
Lewis Hamilton's '08 F1
Mclaren F1 (Ueno Clinic GTR)
MP4-C12
Mclaren P1
This was no static display.... every one of them was driving around the Mclaren lake!
I'm a massive Mclaren fan so this was a pretty special sight. I'd expected to see 5 of these but the James Hunt and the P1 were a very
pleasant extra surprise!
Sadly, I utterly failed in the filming it stakes with a flat camera battery. However I realised tonight I actually made one of the official photos!!!
Will upload sometime soon as I can't upload it for some Ubuntu related reason.
Here's what I saw.... in places I can just about be seen lurking!

Sweet
And if money was no object I'd be having this one
James Hunt's 1978 F1
The sound, the size of the rear tyres, no electronic gizmo rubbish, and the memories

The stig is a very lucky man!
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!
