[Official thread] LMS 1000km of Silverstone...

[wedge]

Managed to sneak into Team Alphand pit just as the Corvettes were being fired up - it was awesome! Stood next to Ollie Gavin and congratulated on his ALMS success. He's a lot taller in real life! For a moment I thought I was standing next to Justin Wilson!

Met Darren Manning and congratulated on his return to IRL. He definitely wants to stay in IRL, preferably in a better team obviously - he has no problems going to back to Chip Ganassi if the offer came up.

What a day! Thrilling race, relly enjoyed it. My dad did as well. Defiently going back to silverstone next year if they are there next year. Please!

Action all over. Towards the end, down at becketts i think it was, a car went off right in front of us! Showered us in tyre marbels as well.

The speed of the cars was imense! Like wedge, we stood at hangar strait and they were so fast, espcially the peugeots. They were just like bullets! So quiet as well!

Congrats to the winners, espcaially ferrari in GT2! Yeah!

The news of the death of colin mcrea spoilt the day a bit for us, but nother the less, a fab day. Walked all around the track while the race was on, trying out different vantage points. The opening sequence of corners is very impressive, we stood on the outside of that corner. Very close to the cars.

All in all, a very worth while trip. As i said, we will defeiently be there next year if they go back to silverstone. It was great weather as well, all though a bit windy!

Took quite a few pictures of the cars, so pictures to follow when we have got to uploading them
