A few of the WK Honda team (Chris, Paulo, Kev) went for the day to Silverstone to meet the 2010 Honda British Touring Car team. The point of the day was to get closer to what they do, meet the engineers and drivers and see how we can make best use of their brilliance (manufacturer champions 2010) in what we do.

 
We met everyone from the "boy who helps out at weekends" to the Technical Director of the team, and finally the two drivers with 25 podium finishes between them this season (Gordon & Matt). They started off by talking us through everything the do to a Honda Civic to turn it into a race car…

 
…and then we got dressed for some seriously scary/fast laps around the Silverstone track being driven by the two professionals (it was work, honest).

and Paulo is the only person in Britain who could dress for a visit to a garage wearing white shoes. Nice touch.
