Footage from a cold, wet and super slippery trackday in January 2020 at Silverstone GP in the Clio 172 and StringTheoryGarage's Celica.

We were never quite sure how much fun we'd have on the big, flat, open tarmac of the Silverstone Grand Prix track in sub 200bhp cars, but it turns out that as long as you have a friend in a car that's the same pace then you can basically have one massive race. It was HUGE fun, especially with such little grip leading to some tasty sideways moments that we were surprised we got away with!
