Nearly forgot, spotted this guy in the paddock. I thought he drove a Vauxhall but it appears he has a chauffeur-driven Porsche.

Great shots Gary.
Did you catch a glimpse of the Spitfire flying over at 1pm? It was arranged for the East Midlands Aero park open day. Battle of Britain Memorial Flight apparently. It flew in down the runway from the Donington Park side, turned and flew back then turned again over the track, back over the top of the Aero park and was gone. I remember the days not so long ago when they did aerobatics for several minutes .... busier schedules these days I suppose. And possibly greater H&S restrictions together with fewer pilots qualified to put on a show? |

Nice pics of course. But why is the passenger of the car #18 leaning on the wrong side…*Sea sick or looking for daffodils?

Best action of the day was Simon Diffey in the Connaught Chasing the Ferrari until his gearbox cried 'enough'.

Gary, this was me just before I climbed into the Porsche, you can what affect Percy's driving had on me.

From the look of some of your snaps, may I have caught you in the background? Thank you for the compliment, coming from you I am genuinely flattered. RF |

No it wasn't me - I was a little further back from the there, in the direction of the start/finish.

I post this sequence as part of a problem solving exercise, not to mock.

Some people just seem to like gravel traps Bob.
Got away with the short cut the first time. Not so luck the second. Did he have an option for a third attempt do you know? |
