Bentley Drivers Club race day at Silverstone.

[Balmoral Green]

Next Saturday, June 11th, mid-morning onwards.

Top day out, all welcome, pay on the gate, parking in the infield area.

Bentley parade at 12 noon, basically if you turn up in a Bentley, then you and a few hundred others form up for a few parade laps, then the racing is all afternoon.

Loads of Bentleys of all types to see, lots of top vintage racing action.

A few PH'ers going, minimax is coming with me in BG.

Cool box with a few cold ones and a picnic is a good idea. If you are going to drop by e-mail me for my mobile number.

BG, on ther 'polish it out' front, what did you do in the end, or are you still T cutting ?

[Balmoral Green]

Left it as it is for the time being, the car drives fine, just a few dents (and comedy stickers now too, for Le Mans).

Having perused your panel beating skills again to refresh memory tonight, I think on reflection it looks actually quite good, a bit 'apre Le Man'
if you will

[neilsie]

may see ya there if i can persuade my neighbiur - will be in a 1927 Bentley which was the reserve for Le Mans that year.

Got the regs and stuff through for the allcomers scratch race yesterday.

Seems to be 16 cars, of which lots are Morgan v8’s, a couple of Caterham’s including an r500 and an AC Cobra.

And me in the tintop! In fact I may be the only tin top! Could have a bit of a struggle!! Lol

Looking at times from my previous races and that event last year I think scraping into the top ten will be hard!!

The Phantom Motors Turbo R racer is entered, despite being almost written off a few weeks back, they have rebuilt it.

I think you may do better than you expect.

I will be rooting for you
