Highlight from last year (after Mass' Lambo of course) had to be the Aventador 8)

Well, I won't be down on my Italian bike, because a tiny coolant leak resulted in it sitting in the shop for a week waiting for a 10p plastic Y-connector to be sent from Italy...

Shut up, it's totally worth it. :D

I will take the SV as in the previous years.

Hope the weather will be dry as I hate drying the Lambo.

Look forward to seeing some SEers there :)

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Home Monday morning - utter crapola as I'd have loved to have taken Calum along as he's showing a growing interest in cars albeit mainly from Stuttgart but I'm sure he would benefit from a bit of Italian flair :roll:
