Historic & Vintage Racing at Silverstone, 17th 18th May.
Historic & Vintage Racing at Silverstone, 17th 18th May.
Once again I’m hoping to meet regular users of our Forum at Silverstone. Races this time include entries from both the HSCC & the VSCC, I’m particularly looking forward to seeing the Hawthorn Memorial Race for front engined pre 1961 F1, F2, and Tasman cars, on the Sunday. I’ll be in the grid for the VSCC handicap on Sunday evening and marshalling on the Saturday. Anyone who fancies marshalling and thus free entry to the event can contact the HSCC or the VSCC info@vscc.co.uk 01608 644777. No experience necessary! You will be welcomed as a newcomer and given encouragement to continue with training to such essential services ans flag marshalling eventually. See you there.....

I'll definitely be there though it's looking worryingly like I will be sans camera as mine is off back to the factory this weekend
 Does anybody have a full timetable of events? |

I hope you enjoy the weekend. However if I were in the UK I'd be racing at Brands Hatch in the CSMA Classic weekend.
Sadly I'm flying out to Barbados that weekend so I'll be thinking of you all but not much!

I think the HSCC Classic F3 / Derek Bell Trophy is first race on the Sunday, not last race on Saturday.

Ooops - I think you may be right. It's not too clear on the VSCC site - apologies for any mistakes.

yes I am in race 12 as well - on Saturday I am number 112 I think and Sunday 95, looks like the sign on desk will make some money out of me this weekend buying numbers! I havent raced with Classic Sports Cars before and I will be interested to see how I get on. I think I will be the oldest car by some margin! Hopefully I should be able to hold my own though based on the Cloth Cap at Donington.
re value I agree I was bit disappointed that the races are just the normal 15 minute races and not longer. |
