Great shots chaps. As you may guess, we were also blessed with great weather.

Lovely grids in your two races John. We saw a few hairy moments in FISCAR qualifying round at Becketts when the Alpine dropped oil. One of the white Elites had a big spin and several others nearly followed. Nice meeting generally I thought.

Many thanks. Yes, Alpine came back on a trailer minus most of its oil but was sorted for the race. Haven't yet discovered cause.

Apparently the pipe to the oil pressure gauge fractured - hence easy fix..... It did make for a few interesting entry lines to Becketts during practice. |

Great selection of photos all. Only done time-keeping at this event - maybe next year to spectate / photo - tends to clash with HSCC Croft unfortunately.

Agreed, some great pics - love the Alfas of course......
Think I saw some of the competitors from this meet being trailered back up the M6 on Sunday on my way back from Imp National weekend |

Finally finished the Bic Healey race report. Probably too much text, but loads of photos, too. For those interested, it is here:-
