I am sure that you will all recognise this recovery vehicle, Grant and Annie Watson own and equip this Land Rover and are a familiar sight around Silverstone. True dedication to marshalling, while no doubt some will be familiar with the couple who man one of the car recovery lorries.

We owe them all a great debt.

It's beyond 'beyond' Peter.

Another from the Castle Combe Autumn Classic but worth recording is Craig McWilliams in his first ever race. He entered his ex Rudolf Ernst Kieft Climax in the Jon Gross Memorial Trophy and after a couple of gyrations in a very wet (ask Brian!) race brought it safely to the finish.
