During a cold and wet day in October I went down to Silverstone Circuit with Milltek Sport Exhaust and racing driver Tom Onslow-Colen to photograph the launch of a new exhaust exhaust system and body design, courtesy of Urban Automotive, for the new Audi RSQ8 as well as the new BMW M135i and Mercedes CLA 45AS all fitted with Milltek Sport products.
The funny looks from around the paddock of people wondering why we were bringing an SUV to a racetrack soon vanished when we fired up the 4.4L V8 and started taxiing down the pitlane. Tom Onslow-Cole then started throwing the SUV around the track with speeds even the Porsche GT3s couldn’t keep up with in the wet.
After Tom’s paddle in the RSQ8, he swapped the beast out for the smaller, more nimble CLA 45S and M135i, sending them through corners with reverse entries on the redline, igniting the spectator’s eyes with excitement.
The aim of this shoot was to capture the brand testing the products and inspiring people to get to the track and use the brand to unleash the potential of their car…
