Hiding your light under a bushel there, Mr Drabble.

What you didn't mention was the presence of a particularly svelte Alfa Romeo in the Historic Touring Cars race, driven by one S. Drabble.

Looking good, sir.

Not a bad weekend on the whole. I thought the balance of races was a little peculiar though, with 10 on the Saturday, and 6 on the Sunday. Also, for someone whose first love is not small-engined single-seaters, the presence on the Sunday timetable of Formula Junior, Formula Ford and Pre-66 F1 & Tasman cars was not particularly inspiring.

Especially when compared with some of the heavy metal that was so entertaining on the Saturday. Highlight has to have been the gentlemanly chopping between Messrs Jaye, Spollon and Ricketts in the Alta, ERA-Delage and ERA E-Type. First class bit of dicing there, and pretty much worth the entrance money all on its own.

And a 3-wheeler Morgan getting into (and out of) a tank-slapper while trying to out-brake a giant Bentley Special is one of those sights that only the VSCC can provide.
