Before this thread gets completely out of hand, may I ask how many posters here on this topic have had any experience of driving a Historic F1 car ? A few I know here have some experience of historic racing cars in general.


I have not driven Historic F1, and I am keeping schtum about slow driving until I have. Sure, everyone loves to see a hotshoe in their favourite car, but speaking as one of the slower drivers on a historic grid, over 30+ years of racing historics, I have seen some very slow drivers, some novices and some scared of their cars, and providing you clock who they are and where they are, then a grid can accommodate them.


Until the MSA introduces a grid lap-time qualifying rule (pole +15% or whatever) then we should not grizzle. Some of the comments in previous posts are OTT. Here endeth pompous bit.
