Got the joke in the Olympus vid. You can't pronounce Baccaruda. Can't remember where that was from, though! |

I do feel deflated when I see the amount of work you put in to your project, totally beyond my capabilities. Watch out RBS, only the Coronavirus can save you from certain defeat. We are coming or you. |

"for me, it’s about the racing, the racing and the racing; the fancy dress, the vehicle parades, the lifestyle merchandising are but a distraction." Couldn't agree more, I am lucky to have attended all but one Revival and for me it's all about the visceral impact of seeing superbly prepared cars driven by many of the world's top drivers at seemingly alarming speeds and very often angles!
Without doubt the finest spectating is to be found out at the far side of the circuit, I usually station myself at No Name on the approach to St Mary's away from the crowds and in the lee of some natural protection afforded by the trees behind giving a degree of cover from the predominately westerly rain clouds. Sterling effort preparing your reports, thanks for the memories and great photographs meanwhile we'll have to satisfy our passion with the GRRC's Easter Monday broadcast in place of this year's Members Meeting which would have been my first. |

In the DB3S with Sir Stirling in part 1 is Salvadori, not Brooks.
The white Ford Mk 4 is not the LM ‘67 winner which is red and is a non-runner (it was pushed on to the grid for the Dan Gurney celebration). Like others, sorry to be pedantic, but very good photos; thank you. Paul M |

I tried to make it clear that the white Mk4 was not the winner but probably confused myself and others into the bargain ! |
