I've just watched your in car footage from the Classic Thunder round at Oulton Park, the way you patiently dispatched that wayward scooby was brilliant  Hopefully you will be back at Oulton next year and fingers crossed the grid will be as stunning as it was this year, had to be the best gathering of tin tops i've seen in years.

That is a fantastic video - thanks for sharing.
On the second lap through Paddock hill on yellows, I had trouble spotting the flags waving, even knowing they were there. I couldn't even spot them properly rewinding the video. It wasn't that they were not clearly waved by the marshals, but even so it was still difficult to see them against the background - No wonder that we get drivers saying they didn't see the flags so often. It might well be the size of the video I am looking at, and the camera set so far back in the car, but it was quite a surprise. |

I suspect they're easier to see in real life than on that video as the light balance means they're lost in the brightness. It's still a reminder to us as flaggies that it's not enough to just wave them, we need to do all we can to ensure they're visible to the drivers.
As a former Sunbeam owner, I just need to say this. *Droooool*. Love that car. |

Why the Road Angel inside the Sunbeam Lotus?
Is that your speedo? |
