Did anybody go to the Britcar 24 Hour at Silverstone last year?

If so, was it any good?

It was very good, Rollcentre won the race.  ;)
I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.

I didn't go but from wha I hear it was a good race very very wet, lots of laps under yellow, Martin Short won and he will be back again this year, I understand that the organising club is TBA, that may decide if I go or not.

It was an awesome race, hard work for us media types, and no decent sunrise/sunset shots, but still awesome, and I can't wait for this years!

This year, I'm definitely going to Le Mans, Spa, and Silverstone. Might do 2CV's, I wanna go, enjoyed the atmosphere when I was there last year (wasn't there for race, qualifying day, shooting something else), but I may be at Brands Hatch for the Dunlop thing. Might go up to Snet afterwards, and catch some of it, if I can. Haven't really decided yet!

OK for me this year it looks like just the four 24's...

2CV's, Le Mans, Le Mans Classic and Spa 24. 

I can't make the Moto24 that Keith is going to so I will have to stay home, drink beer, eat rubbish and watch cars and bikes on TV for the weekend!   ;D

Watching on the box might be the best bet if the weather stays as it is.

So a normal weekend for you then? Or just a 2 month warmup for LM?

Actually it's my only weekend off for 3 months!!

And...it will be different - the blooming chef will be in Le Mans - who's going to cook for me, bring me drinks and do the washing up >:(

Looks like the 2CV's could be getting less and less likely now (nightmare!), as I've now volunteered for a race at Silverstone, for some reason...
