ahead to next year
Discussion
the 2 big events are over so what would you like to see at the festival next year to make it different again. just an idea i know the commentators bring up is how about some really up to date hillclimbers, we get Rod Millen and a few pikes peak cars so take it a step further.
cricket pitch display maybe Doug Nye will get his wish and get an old train on it.
p.s. did anyone get the 2009 dvd this weekend and what do you think, love the Loeb on board camera

I'd like to see - bizarrely enough - some boats at the FOS. I'm talking about boats that have either a car engine or an aero engine in them, preferably wood as well. Things like the Gold Cup racers from the 20's-30's and the unlimited hydroplanes of the 50's onwards - not to forget the European efforts with Ferrari, Maserati and Alfa engines in them. Might be an interesting addition for the Cricket Pitch?

Might be a bit hard to get them running but it does sound interesting as a static display. I think a safe bet for key manufacturer/major celebration next year will be Alfo Romeo, 100 years in 2010. I would hope to see Ken Block , the only thing he would probably be in his rally car rather than the Gymkhana car, probably to do both runs like Jesse James did this year. Who knows. Would also like to see Danica Patrick, there was mention of her at this years FOS. Dont know if their will be a Moto GP clash next year. Either way I already looking forward too it.
I would just like them to restrict entry a little bit , I've given the festival a miss the last couple of years as it's just got too crowded to be comfortable especially around the garage areas and I thought the revival was noticably more busy this year as well , that said both are fabulous events and the revival is a MUST do for me. It would be really great to see Mansell and Hill driving at the revival , in some sort of catergory.
Would love to see a collection of one-off and unusual F1 cars; whilst they have all been there individually would be good to see the 6-wheel Williams and Tyrrell, Brabham Fan Car, Williams Walrus Nose, Lotus twin-chassis and Gas Turbine etc. all together - worth of a class in itself.
Personallly would be happy to see lass emphasis on the new cars - do we really need three versions of the Veyron or 5 different McLaren SLRs??
