Comments: Favourite track is Nurburgring Nordschleife. Did tourist laps in a hire car in Sept 05, unbelievable. A must do for all motorsport enthusiasts. Also, I was lucky enough to sample a number of performance cars with MOTOR magazine's PCOTY tests in late 2006... but I would still rather race my superkart any day.
