Gearing up for a sunny(not) weekend at Sillystone for the WHT, waterproofs and thermals packed! It such a grim place at the best of times and the spectator viewing is somewhat limited but the FF1600 entry is strong as usual and there is shelter to be found in the BRDC grandstand free even for the social outcasts such as me! After the good showing for the FFord Festival at Brands this event always makes for good racing and the pits and paddock are spectator friendly.

Looking forward to this meeting as always - I've even taken the weekend off work to attend. I'll probably be somewhere on the Luffield terrace with a large flask of coffee.

The BBC weather forecast for Silverstone is now looking to be dry and not too cold for the wekend, but a bit breezy on Saturday https://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/0/2637827

I've managed the Sunday couple of times but for the first time I'm there both Sat/Sun having managed to find a cheap B&B to save a second 5 hour round trip from the South coast the pleasure of being retired!
The pits remind me of the FFord festival 30-40 years ago when the heats used to run over 3-4 days with so many entrants. Luffled/Woodcote is ok but I prefer going out to the marshall's post at Maggots/Becketts where they are braking to come back across the Wellington straight, it's a good braking/overtaking point as is the approach to Brooklands/Luffield observed from the BRDC stand.
Thanks for the links.

For reasons unconnected with motor sport, I was driving down to the area on Sunday afternoon - not now I aren't . An early start is required - Walter Hayes sounds like the perfect swansong to my season

I shall be there in a marshalling capacity as normal, hoping nobody causes me to have to run around or push anything. Very much looking forward to my last outing of the year before a well-earned rest.

I usually just get one, generally in the final. Other than the year my one was a very pleasant dutch chappie who lost it on the green flag lap of a heat. Oddly enough at this meeting the mayhem seems to happen elsewhere.

I'm, probably going to regret saying that now.

Delta - what was the cause of the large amount of smoke being produced as you rounded Luffield towards the end of qualifying?
