Hello
I'm an automobile engineering student who's never been to a VSCC meeting, but would love to attend one to see and learn about classic automobiles made by great enginners like Marc Birkigt, Ettore Bugatti and Vittorio Jano. However, I don't have acces to my Ducati yet and can't get there on anything apart from public transport. I live in London and can easily get to Northampton or any other nearby rail station, could somebody be so very kind and give me a lift to Silverstone ? Many Thanks Aneesh |

Stagecoach run the 88 bus from Northampton bus station (short walk from the train station) £7.60 return to Silverstone village (about 1/2hr walk to the circuit, but if the bus is empty, driver will often go off route & drop you at the track).
I've checked & it is running tomorrow xx:20 from Northampton, last ones back are 18:45/19:15 (journey time ~50 mins) |

Aneesh - have you received my messages? if I don't hear from you before 9am tomorrow, I'll assume you don't want a lift.

It's VSCC.
Different from any other type of race meeting and so much more interesting than others. Don't worry about which track is used.The major interest is in Paddock. |

An enjoyable start to a long weekend of motor sport. Some stunning cars on track and in the paddock.

George should be on list.
If you want to get to a race meeting it is always possible to get there. A test of interest! |

Lovely shots, brands. I'm sorry to have missed this event which I have often been to in the past but I couldn't justify to myself the time and costs of going when for the next 2 days I was going to be at Cadwell. Anyone else got any feedback from this lovely event. Where's 'eclectic', these days?
