Silverstone Classic

I popped over today to have a look. The Maserati location looks pretty good over the bridge and first on the left. There is hard standing for the concours cars with the rest of us on the grass, fortunately it is very dry and hard so should be no issues there.

I will post some pictures up later

Let's hope the showers predicted do not arrive, we will have to have a rev off if we see dark clouds approaching, fight them with sound pressure..!!

Anyone taking a fire extinguisher if we're parking on dry grass? Slow approach, hot cats near the ground.....

Just a thought, like

I'm assuming we have all had our tickets now, and know where to go and park up, and by what time.
I plan on coming up from the south (Poole) via Heathrow (dropping my son off early), but I could do with some guidance from Heathrow - bearing in mind there are some roadworks on the M40 around Jn5. This is my planned route - any advise?

The marshalling today was far stricter than in previous years. In the past there was a constant stream of cars coming and going over the bridge at Bridge. This year, there's none of that.

I suggest you don't hang about and get in early. Though with the usual traffic issues on Sat/Sun I would imagine that the organisers would offer a little bit of leeway for stragglers.

He looks familiar. I think I last saw him on Crimewatch.

Saw the Zagato as well. Did NOT like. The Lancia Aurelia was stunning though and it was nice to see the 365 2+2. The Piper P2's were interesting as well. Behind the Maserati stand over towards the paddock.
