Up! GTI smoking Aston Martin V8 Vantage on track #upGTI #VWUpGTI

This video shows the moment a lightly modified VW Up! GTI overtakes an Aston Martin V8 Vantage on track. I've included the build up so you can see the Aston is trying but loses its straight line speed advantage on the brakes and in the corners when an Up! is in its element. While the Aston still beats even the tuned Up! GTI with power to weight ratio, all that extra weight takes its toll on track with strain on brakes and tyres. Still, great to see the Aston being used on track, quite a rare sight!
