Sheisse, Ive gotta go to Silverstone that afternoon... shame, should be a good meeting - I had a summer job working in an old peoples home in cornwall when I was a kid and Donald moved in - unfortunately he died a couple of weeks later! His family had a cider farm near Perranporth as I recall.
Enjoy! |

Lots of full grids of classic sportscars. The most Healey's ever seen. However, the event was overshaddowed by a huge accident in the European Healey Race......
No news about the driver's condition as yet. |
