Silverstone Classic
 

Tickets arrived this morning, and I can't wait! For those who haven't been, you can see hundreds of famous racing cars in action, and more hundreds of road cars from all eras on display. Plus, getting through the car park takes ages too, there's so much good stuff.

Anyone else going?

When is it?

20/21 and 22 July Tim. I've been for the last few years as you can wander around the garages and inspect all the cars at close quarters - better even than when I first went to a GP in the 1970s, and you could wander over to the pits and watch the F1 mechanics working on the cars and see the drivers hanging around. We even got to drive the circuit one year!

I've plumped for the Sunday because a couple of old friends are racing, one in Group C and WSM and probably Gentlemen Drivers, and the other in Masters F1. But also there is a race for the 1980s BTCC cars, which was the golden era, Cosworths etc, and the reason I bought a 3-door back in 1988 :)

I'm heading to this, my cousin is a car reviewer and might have managed to get me a passenger spot for the Sunday supercar parade laps! Fingers crossed!!
