and finally - CtL (Mike) added his name to the draw in the Main Audi Stand for the chance to win a passenger hot laps session in a race prepared R8 driven by e-FPA champion Steve Warburton, he then won the 1/2 hourly draw and suddenly realised that he would probably be killed . . . . . by Angela if he risked going in the car with still damaged/broken ribs from his accident. . . . . . guess who stepped in to help him out? 
It turned out that Steve owns an original Audi V8 (D1) which he had driven to the track in so we had a great conversation about that. The R8 did 2 hot laps at full chat and it was pretty quick as they let us out onto the track in front of the other cars to get maximum benefit!
I spoke to steve later and he said that a full tank of fuel was doing 3 sets of 2 hot laps before the DIS flagged up 70 miles of range left!!
