Did we have any photographers present?
If so did anyone manage to get any in the 500 race. Unfortunately we managed 2 red flags and a result was not declared which was disappointing especially as I was in the lead at the time. I have never criticised any race clerks or marshalls and will not; but did feel the red flags a little over zealous. Stuart Wright #16 Cooper Mk XI |

Just ploughing through the photos at the moment Stuart. Barely enough laps to get any decent shots of your race but will see what I have.
There should be plenty of photos about - lots of photographers there including a few of us alongside the two red flag incidents. Shame about the second one in particular as the driver managed to push start his car and got going just after the red flag. |

Bob
Many thanks for the pictures that you sent greatly appreciated. I will pass these on to our website and magazine editor if you do not mind. Feel free to come and say hello at VSCC Mallory Park in August if you will be there? Stuart |

Few from me from that race. Just a pity it was so short as normally one of the more entertaining races.

Agree, too many red flags, too soon.
Not great for the drivers. Some very poor entries in some races too. Not great for the spectators. It was a 3.5 hour journey to Cadwell to see Formula Vintage. It was an MSV Featured meeting. It was worth going to see what it was like. Sadly, I have now decided against Snetterton in September. |
