Had another canny day out to the Masters on Sunday. You cant beat seeing the old F1 and Can-Am around the GP loop.

Here's my pics n vid from the day, as always all comments welcome:

Was there on the Saturday just as whatever it was (never did find out) decided to drop all its fluid round the whole track.

Got in at 11:15 and waited till 13:45 for a car to be on track!!

Was worth the wait though, love the Can-Ams, that Mclaren must be terrifying from behind the wheel.

A black Mustang was the culprit - car 84?
if he had any sense, he should have scarpered off quick sticks...
It happened just when it started drizzling. the detergent (a good choice of dispersal methods if a wet track) made it worse
2 hours of nothingness

It was my first taste of historic motorsport, and I thought it was a great weekend. Well run and good value for money for spectators. The oil clean up was a bit boring, but these things happen. I guess i'm also quite patient - i've been exposed to drag racing the most in my life, and you seem to spend forever waiting for cleaning up to be done, or the track dried!
