[QUOTE=kipper;4146281]I can't see the event being condensed into a single day. I think there will be double headers for the Jochen Rindt Trophy, Historic FF2000, Mighty Minis, and the CMMC Classic Challenge/Jaguar Trophy (which I assume will share a grid); a triple-header for the Classic Ferraris; and a single race for FISCAR. Therefore, barring some odd merging of grids (e.g. the Ferraris and Minis on track together), there is too much stuff for a single day meeting.
Therefore, I imagine there will be a fair amount of 'padding' in the form of demonstrations and/or parades in order to fill the time. There is some precedent for this. Having just checked, the first Thruxton Historic meeting (in 2018) had 2.5 hours of racing on the Sunday.
You are probably right. Thruxton loses a lot of time with the Church break on a Sunday as well. I guess I will go anyway because it’s very local for me and I love the circuit. It all sounds a bit thin though but on a sunny day who knows?
