SL should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Simon,

Lurk around several forums although this is my favourite.

Brought up on racing by my dad, early memories of Crystal Palace, Brands and Silverstone seeing all the 1960-70's greats battle it out, our family TV was dedicated to racing, this incl Dad on the phone to the BBC quite often to enquire why the racing had been interupted to see a rain sodden cricket pitch, I thus learnt rude words at a very early age

My main interest is Le Mans, this year was number 21. The first was 1978. I have also done Spa 24 (good) and Daytona 24 twice (not so good).

I just love the 1960 - 70 F1 cars and the 1950 - 70 sports cars, early memories recall meeting several drivers that seemed pleased to see you albeit you were number 5,999 that day. Even peeing against the same wall as Jim Clark Today the only event that come close are Le Mans and Goodwod.
