Thanks delta. As it turns out i'm going along with someone now and we've booked a hotel, thanks for the intentions though.

Entry list looks great, I remember last year it was extremely wet on the monday and a lot of cars didn't run, which is understandable. I've not been to many historic meetings so I'm wondering whether that's normally the case even in light rain or whether it's just in monsoon weather?

Edit: Also which cars will be in the pit garages (I assume gp masters?) and will there be an opportunity to do a pitwalk?

Thanks.

**Peter Mallett** · 23 May 2009, 03:42 (Ref:2467436)

The greatvthing about historic events is the accessibility of the cars and drivers. Although the situation of the pits at Brands makes access more difficult I would expect there to be reasonable acces to the garages throughout the weekend.

The Paddock should be full of interesting stuff too so even if you can't get into the middle you'll find loads to look at.

As to rain. Unless it's of monsoon proportions its unlikely to affect the grids.

White flag man · 23 May 2009, 19:08 (Ref:2467769)

Great day today and some great battles. Jackie Oliver and Roger Wills certainly had interesting days. Hope you enjoyed yourself in the Mercury Roger, it certainly looks good. Thanks to all, roll on tomorrow.

I promise I won't this weekend! It had been a long day...

Elio · 23 May 2009, 20:19 (Ref:2467805)

Erm, HOW much kerb through Paddock Mr Wills!!??............

jonbryant · 23 May 2009, 20:22 (Ref:2467806)

Nice shot that Elio. Annoyingly I've seen the patch of new unpainted barrier at the top of the shot which will be in my background. Rats.
