Fair to say todays weather wasn’t the best for taking photos at Knockhill Racing Circuit World of Supercars event, but share away any shots you have of the day.

Some stunning cars on display and it was great to see a Senna up close up, but if I could of driven one car away it would of been the black 458 Speciale!
