Ten gorgeous Miss Scotland finalists sampled our Hot Hatch Car Trackday today (Sunday 22 April), adding a little bit of glamour to the day. The brave girls donned hot-pants and Scottish Sun emblazoned t-shirts to host competitions and perform trophy presentations.
Around 80 drivers took to the tarmac in a wealth of machinery including popular marques Toyota, Vauxhall, Renault, Ford, Subaru and an insanely camouflaged white Nissan GTR. Others also sampled our free drag and drift competitions with Andi Halkett taking the drifting honours and David Brown reigning supreme in the drag.
Again, in the Club stakes, it was the Vauxhall boys who came out on top and comfortably lead the 2012 Club Car Championship. However, it was West of Scotland RS Owners’ Club member Annette who scooped the top prize in the Show’n’Shine competition. Here she is below accepting her trophy from one of the Miss Scotland contestants.
