No idea yet but Nigel Mansell's '94 Newman Haas-Lola Indycar will be there. It's not the '93 Car that he won the Championship in but it should be worth seeing if it runs on the track. It seems there's something of a Lola theme this year.

I'll be there all weekend marshaling and if the weather isn;t too bad residing in my tent in the evenings..

If it decides to persist it down my plan b - wise given the summer we're having is to make a run for the house only 40 minutes in the car each way.

I was talking to Ash the cheif engineer who looks after the Bentley Le Mans cars and he told me they were not doing the Gold Cup this year and were doing the Pageant of Power instead.

If anybody is thinking of going for this, tomorrow morning (WEDNESDAY 20th) is the last chance to book online to save a few quid.

I've just realised I'm over at Snett, not Sillystone on the Sunday so there's a very slim chance I'll be in a fit state to get to Oulton on the Monday frown
