Just got back home and my eyes are still out on stalks! Left about 1.30 to beat the traffic but it was still a bind getting back towards the M25 and strangely saw a bunch of Masers and Ferraris heading south on the M40 as I was heading north to come off at Banbury.

The turnout and variety of cars was fantastic, I've never seen so many Ferraris, Masers and Abarths in one place. Lots of 'stand outs' but top of the list for me would be the gloriously glamourous RHD sky blue Indy, silver Khamsin, jet black RHD 3500GT and the three Ghibli IIs amongst the Masers, the beautiful white Miura, the burgundy Espada looking like something from Gerry Anderson' 'UFO', the utterly fab Dino 308GT4 and the line up of Dino 246s.

Spent £50 on another Maser book, by accident of course!

Pics to follow, I took rather a lot.

(Oh, and the sound of you lot arriving in the Masers was wonderful!)

As always it was great day and I put a few more names to faces, the Maserati turn out was spectacular.

Track was a little more disappointing than previous years as I was first behind the pace car and he would not let me build gap and give the Strad the beans up the straight.

If anyone got any pic of me on track O would be grateful for a copy.

Weather was kind and I am now at home in garden with a G&T

Cheers Phil - finally managed to transfer them from my work ipad (my normal digi-camera died on arrival at Brooklands!) to this 'ere PC, total number of pics taken = 790, ergo, I must be mad! I'll edit the best ones and post them here, but here are a few to kick off for now ;)

I arrived quite early in the Abarth and pulled up behind this little beauty...



I want this...



And this...



And this...
