Silverstone Classic, is exactly that! Classic!

Free entry to the pits, garages, paddock, grandstands. Superb weather, friendly people and some truely awesome classic race cars such as the 6 wheeled Tyrell!

some of the 1500 or so photos I took are on flickr

I watched it on Sunday @ MotorsTV. Completely stunned!

Also Murrey Walker added a lot to the show:
(approx. quote) "One lap to go. And here comes the victorious Peter Sowerby in Williams. I think I'm safe to say so, although the other day I said "Here comes Arnoux and nothing can stop him now!" and then he hit some oil and crashed out on the last lap...... "
As Murrey was saying this the leading Williams broke down and lost the lead on the last lap =D>

I felt like I'm in some time machine!

PS: great photos! Thanx!
