I too drove a yellow car this week...a 458 Spider, with the little window behind my head down just to hear it. It's good fun driving these things...innit.

It was amazing. The pop of the exhaust on the down change was just as good as the sound during acceleration. Immense!
The guy that took me out was great. We were getting to the corners and he just kept saying don't brake don't brake, aim for the apex, power it to the exit cone. I was doing 100 mph on one of the corners could feel the car skipping on the corner.
Very nerve racking considering it's only the second day the car had been out on the track, but so exhilarating when you get onto the straight and continue accelerating. Nothing passed me apart from Tiff Needell in his M4. He's a nutcase on the track!
