Autosport 2006 - A bit of praise (for a change)

[monkeyhanger]

This is nothing to do with the actual static display side of the show, but all to do with the "Live Action Arena"....which usual gets panned by a lot of people.

The show opened with something i think should be shown in the first of ITV's 2006 WRC coverage shows...

A PROPER tribute to Michael Park and Richard Burns, it really was well done and backed up by Rod Stewart's version of "Forever Young".

It was watched in almost total silence by a capacity crowd. Absoloutely Superb.

Well done to Autosport

Yep, I thought that was a very nice tribute too.

I really enjoyed the Live Action Arena, I don't understand how so many people who are motorsport enthusiasts dont want to watch this. I found it incredibly enjoyable, and those RallyX cars

The tribute was moving and the crowd reacted appropriately when I saw the show (3pm Saturday)

I got into the arena and sat into my chair to see the closing seconds of the tribute.
I had heard about it on Friday and was keen to see it, just didn't realise it was the first part of the show

What else did you see in the live arena.
I watched oval racing at 4.30, which was heats of a few sets of cars racing.
I left as the finals started as it was boring.
