Aston Martin Vantage Road to Race Day
Aston Martin Vantage Road to Race Day
QuickSilver were guests of Aston Martin Racing at Silverstone yesterday to attend the Aston Martin Vantage Road to Race Day
The event was to present Aston Martin’s GT4 Challenge cars for 2011 and most of the teams contesting this series took the opportunity to treat this as a test day.
With over twenty GT4’s constantly circulating the sound of bass V8’s was non-stop.
In addition there were a number DBR9 GT1 cars to add some V12 treble.
Lapping for much of the day was a beautiful Aston Martin One-77 – stupendously fast down the straights but it’s road tyres were at a disadvantage to the Vantage’s slicks in the corners. Admired & desired by everyone.
Aston Martin’s Chief Executive Dr Ulrich Bez and Aston Martin Racing Chairman David Richards were both spirited drivers in the special AM Rapide ‘Nurbugring’ and a very interesting new V12 Vantage Racer.
Both ‘bosses’ made short speeches after a tasty lunch at the splendid new BRDC clubhouse.
QuickSilver are proud to be partners with Aston Martin Racing’s GT4 Challenge in 2011 and look forward to attending the races in the UK, France and Belgium.
We attach a few photos below as a taste of the day:
