OK I've signed up with Photobucket and posted a few photos up there, here's the link: http://s813.photobucket.com/albums/z...%20FoS%202010/
I'll add more photos later.

The pipe and ladder on the Transit are a nice touch!

Hi Alga, I reckon he could have shaved another second off his time if he'd removed the roof rack and flashing beacon although he claimed the biggest problem with driving it quickly was corners, it wallowed badly being as it has such a high centre of gravity.

Some nice pictures Dave - I haven't been since 2008, I watched the tv coverage but it's not the same!

Cheers

Chris

Its certainly a fantastic weekend Chris. The Jim Clark Lotus 38/1 was apparently valued for insurance purposes at somewhere between 40 and 60 million dollars !!

What I love about FoS is you can walk around the cars, talk to the drivers (last year while walking around the F1 paddock I spotted a driver and said to my wife "that's Jochen Mass" and he said " yes it is, how do you do?" and held out his hand, how cool is that?). This year I not only got Stirling Moss' autograph along with Murray Walker's but I managed to get a couple of minutes chat with both, how cool is that? .

Going to have a look at www.goodwood.co.uk now and see if there's any way we can afford the Revival in September .
