[FourWheelDrift]

If you can't make it this weekend Motors TV are showing races live on Saturday & Sunday, some details on races and times shown here - http://www.livesportontv.com/motor-sports/

Looking forward to this massively, although I shall be there!

It was a cracking weekend last year and although I didn't get to look around the stalls and so on much myself what I saw and herd suggested it is every bit the equal of the old Coy's events in their heyday.

If the weather is a patch on last years it'll be fantastic.

Personally I'm particularly looking forward to the WSCM 64'-'74 and Group C races.

Let's hope they make a better job it than last year, which I thought, was absolutely terrible.

Last year was great a lot of the time.

It's labeled wrong for the WSM race Saturday evening, they have it labeled as the GPM race, thats one to watch with the sports cars going into the dusk.

Would you care to expand upon this? I only ask as it is the only negative comment I have seen or heard without any attempt at being constructive.

Edit to add: Having just clicked through the links on your profile it is hard not to make assumptions why you chose to make such a post.

i thought it was great, the geordie commentator was a great laugh and they all appeared fairly knowledgeable. it was live, historic racing on tv, to be honest i was just gratful for that never mind the commentary.

Toby Moody was there last year, I think he will be at Donington for the MotoGP this year though, unless he already committed to the Classic before Eurosport got the coverage back.

Brilliant.

Last years coverage was excellent IMO. A nice change to be able to sit back at home and enjoy watching some legendary machinery racing.

As I can't get down there for the event, I plan on spending a big chunk of Sunday infront of the box with some nice wine.

Ive got 2 spare tickets if anyone is interested?

A friend gets them through Honda, so cheaper than on the gate prices.

I was suprised to see how quiet it is at Silverstone, but then remembered how expensive the tickets where and that is why I am sitting at home watching it

Those Ford Capris and the Batmobile BMW are gorgeous!

Some proper car porn racing at the moment
