A curate's egg frankly . Some thin grids, usual SC nonsense at every opportunity , unwelcome banging tunes all day from somewhere above the Old Hairpin and a TWO HOUR race this morning . An hour's fine but no more at this sort of meeting thanks . Not very great for thirty quid , even though some lovely cars and excellent driving.
I enjoy any day out at the races of course but I really do feel that DHF has bigged itself up as some sort of major event when it is nothing of the sort . It has poor atmosphere,bizarre timetabling, mediocre viewing , a small crowd and it needs a lot more thought to compete with 'rivals' such as the Gold Cup (for example )
