Silverstone Classic 2011 - long evenings again

[HairyDJ]

So, who's doing all three days this time (22nd-24th July 2011) ?

Just got the sales blurb through for the 2011 event and had a crawl around the web site for info. Looks like a good event for the punters / racers, but long days for marshals again! No mention whether they will try to work us through the lunch break again .....

It does seem that they have listened to some of the feedback (from punters?) and they've gone posh on Sunday with a 40 piece orchestra - beats z-list non celebs!

Annoyingly, they seem to have gone with the cash and are running celeb races again - no mention of what cars this time, but last year's Abarths are up for sale via the site. I doubt that they'll be trusted with anybody's classic pride and joy though?
