    Troy Bayliss was in pole position and was a clear winner for 2008 .....

    Michael Schumaker was one of the honorary guests for the inaugural race of this new â?¬20 million racetrack ... not sure if he was the one who took the F1 car around the track yesterday, which we sadly missed.

    Marley, wanted to get this up before you leave for your sunshine so hopefully you see it as I know you wanted Bayliss to win. :thumb: I'll try to organise a few more photos here for your return ... they went by awfully fast though ..... :Ds00k

    PS I can actually see MY car in the photos .... :)

    Marley, I thought of you as I watched a programme on Men and Motors, the Sturgis Bike Rally.
    Brought holiday memories back again too.:)

    Sounds like you had a good time Lol. 40 Euros sounds like you had a really good deal for the pass.
