Had a great day at Silverstone yesterday great to meet members from GTMOC also,
just wish I could have stayed for the Cobras and TVRs and the group C cars racing
but after two weeks of nights and a half 4 start I was feeling rather 'frazzed'.
Who wants to watch celebrities who can't drive!! Driving Austin A40 round Silverstone
twice in the afternoon when there are racing drivers driving old fire breathing race cars
to put them on starting at 5.30pm till 9.00 o'clock at night let the celebs race at that
time or even better 3.00am lol.
No good for a day tripper who lives far a field, rant over lol.
By the way Bob did it rain?

Yes it did Jamie, about 7pm, but we decided to miss the music again and were safely tucked up in a restaurant when it did, going back later to meet the others at the hotel for drinks.
Glad you had a good day and by the way, loved your motor, it's one of the best out there 8) .

Good event. The odd shower on Saturday did make some of the racing interesting as it was damp at Luffield and not anywhere else on one race.

Good to have a nose around. Jamies V6 Libra did look fairly smart.

I spotted some people trying to peer into the Coupe engine cover while I was around the car in the afternoon, so I walked over and popped the lid to a chorus of "Bloody hell!" :lol: :lol:
