That was a great race even the commentator predicted a Neil /sheddon win .once in front they were extending their lead .great weekend shame about the weather.did you do a parade lap any in the mx5 andy ? .we did on Friday in the v6 weather was pretty poor but the racing was well worth the trip down .

Was great to meet you and your Mrs Graham. Shame you didn't join us in the evenings for something to eat. Maybe next year.
Weather was pretty awfull when we left and as much as I'd love to have watched the Mini's come into thier own in the rain I felt like a drowned rat so left not long after you.

Fantastic weekend despite the rain. The circuit was like a ghost town on Sunday!

May not be rushing back next year, as Goodwood beckons again and the atmosphere there is hard to beat. Silverstone could really do with some more TV screens around the place so we can see all the action too.

Went to say hello a couple of times YMJ but the car was all on its own any time I went over. What happened with the rear left quarter?!

It seemed like the Minis might have had a shot in the BoB race, but was still pleased that my pal's E-Type won in the hands of Matt Nichol-Jones.

We can blame Bernie for that, Silverstone may well be perfect for an F1 meeting but is just too big for anything else. Spectators are so far from the track!

Pete there was around 100.000 people there on Saturday so walking around didn't feel anything like that number with the space .walking around the pits seeing some very rare cars close up that must be an advantage at a large circuit .tv screens you can always watch it at home .silverstone classic the perfect venue in my opinion .
