Although Google is enamored with the Triumph Thruxton, presumably you're referring to the Thruxton Circuit:

Don't suppose you got to do any sprints on the runways?

Nope. But flat through Noble is character building.

I felt the instructor was very calm as he responded to my comment about tail happy handling. Apparently "Yeah, but not many people notice to be honest..."

According to the inter web, the lap record works out at an average of 138mph. Noting that there are no straights, this is impressive.

YouTube has onboard clips of V8S F-Types "making progress"
