Winton Fun day, SATURDAY 2 JULY 2011
- Thread starter leg-it
- Start date
If your car's working you should do this day. I've done 2 (both in my old FTO) and they were both awesome fun for the money.
I'd love to do this one, but until I get my AYC and LCAs fixed I really shouldn't. If I manage to get that done by then I'll try make it though.
