I'd love to go back to the Croup C days, witn an unmolested, unsanitised circuit.
Then you'd have loved last weekend. Especially the Friday when there's nobody about and you can wander up and down the pit lane during free practice. The sound of that Mazda from the pit wall was incredible.  |

I'm suprised that no one has suggested Mr Sunshine. Remember him? Big round yellowy fella, used to hang around in the sky at this time of year. Been a while...

I'd like to see Lotus back (not just the legends and historic events).
The last outing in 1997 was far from triumphant.
And how about the Index Of Performance?
Would that not be of interest to engine developers and OEMs to show off their abilities.

Erta - and the Chicken Man (and no, that's not a bunch of posing pseudo-musicians from the 80's)
The Poulet Roti opposite the old Champagne Cork Bar was the absolute bollox when a beer-sponge was required.
I sort of felt guilty about Erta. I'm not sure what compelled me to stand and gorp at her - I was reduced to an hysterical wreck when one of my buddies offered her some of his chips, however.
Alphonse, the take-on all-comers pugilist was a right laugh too - as was the balloon shooting with snub-nose .38 Specials (with live ammo) in the fairground. Health and Safety, you f*ckin' what?

A Piper GTR - built better this time
It ran again at the Classic last year, although the reliability factor played a hand. Car looked gorgeous and the girl in the period Piper Racing overalls and not much else that was fettling it wasn't too bad either! I'm sure someone has a picture somewhere.
Funnily enough...  Nice pic, shame they never realy had the budget to develop the car and race properly |
