I don’t think Gerard was suggesting side attractions when he used the word ‘show’. IMHO Le Mans Classic is more about the cars than the two other big ‘spectator’ events I can think of- Goodwood Revival and Silverstone Classic. But when you have each ‘Plateau’ spanning many years and cars of considerably disparate performance, then races are bound to appear to be more of a show to some.
