Thanks for sharing the photos. I didn't know the F5000's were going to be racing or I would have made sure I got to the event!

Q: Why do the Aussies (and the yanksfor that matter) run modern tyres on historics?
All it does to my mind is encourage/necessitate the *******isation of the rest of the car |

Keep an eye out on the vhrr website (www.vhrr.com), as these events are advertized months in advance. Next stop for them is Sandown in November! |

Really? I wouldn't have thought so to any meaningful extent. Anyway, not an issue that holds any interest for me, as I just enjoy seeing the pageant of motorsport history unfold at these events. If it means that the cars are more predictable and therefore perhaps slightly easier to control at speed, I don't see the problem.
