Numbers we're massively down on previous years due to the lack of Vulcan flying.
All the previous years had maybe 20- 30 man long queues at all the food stalls, this year, no queues at all. A bit worrying really.
Still 165mph down the straight (indicated, not GPS) was my new record though, 159 last year. You can easily brake over 100m past the brake board even when wet.

On my last run the braking was a bit past that! All the previous years had maybe 20- 30 man long queues at all the food stalls, this year, no queues at all. A bit worrying really.

On Saturday I hit 160 and 162 on the speedo with GPS at 157 on last run coming off the power at the marker

Apologies for not eventually tracking fellow PHers down and saying Hi.
Had a fab weekend, first one I have been to!
Pitched in the dark 9pm Friday next to a lovely black Ultima.
Ended up with the side car crew being ballast in the chair!
Incredible experience
Also blagged a couple trips out with the kind chap with the KTM XBow - a box ticked for sure.
Some super snaps shared, thanks. My camera is too feeble to do these events justice.
Great cars, super pit action, lovely planes and excellent runs by all. Missed the Lotus Festival at Brands and although I missed my pals there, I'm so pleased I went for the different option

Many of those pictures of the Viper came from my passenger who I took out the previous day. They really are brilliant Would love some shots of my Tuscan doing the same sort of thing...don't suppose anyone happened to take any on the Saturday??
