These two put on a show at the Brooklands Centenary Festival, sadly I was not able to get a very good position with my limit of 300mm zoom.

Thanks guys for looking and commenting.

The only down side that day was that they only did about 5 laps of what is a very short circuit so just as I got comfortable with their 'run' they finished the session :(

That is some seriously nice heavy metal. Must have been great to hear them both running.

They were not as noisy as you might think but on the overrun as they brake and the airbrake on the boot/tail comes up they are distinctive. They may have their engine origins in F1 but they are by comparison highly noise managed as far as I could tell. I would think if they were given some serious wellie there would be a definite growl.

:D

Now this one was very noisy, it is last years F1 with this years paintjob and body kit (if I heard what the commentator said correctly?)
