Is anyone else here entered? https://www.vscc.co.uk/page/events?eventID=1818

It's this Saturday, on Silverstone GP, free spectator entry too, although you need to book tickets in advance: https://www.silverstone.co.uk/events/vscc-pomeroy-...

I'm entered in the Corvette again, looking forward to it, although my tyres have done a lot of heat cycles over the last two years (a good excuse for plenty of oversteer).

A very impressive drive indeed , and visibly faster than anything through Brooklands except the (race spec ) CSL . My first experience of the Pom, which turned out to be as eclectic as I had hoped. Where else do you find a ....umm .... well patinated Vauxhall Zafira competing against a GT 40 , a Frazer Nash and an Armstrong Siddeley in maximum attack mode? I suspect the ghost of Bill Boddy was hovering around the paddock , and possibly still droning on about The Track (aka Brooklands , of course).

An excellent CSCC race meeting on Sunday made the long trip worthwhile .
Thank you, much appreciated. Pleased you stayed on for the CSCC meeting too, we got even luckier with the weather, with a bit of sunshine for a while (not that it made things noticeably warmer).
