    Cracking day out ?

    www.see-red.uk.com

    This event is on the w/e 23-24th Sept. And what a cracking weekend it will be.
    A few of us went last year & thoroughly enjoyed it. All the classic Italian race cars from years gone by, tearing around Donington in full-on contact racing !! A sight to behold I can tell ya !!
    Bikes also………. From the 1920’s up to present day. Group ‘B’ “ le-mans” cars, you name ‘em, & they will be on the track !!

    I highly recommend taking a bit of time out to come along & enjoy. I will be there…………. Definitely !

    Would love to go to this but work and the fact we are there the following week make it a non starter, I am afraid.

    It looks like a great event.

    Someone get some pictures

    Another fantastic day at Donington’s SEE RED !!

    So much beautiful metal on show….. & such a cr@p camera to take piccies with !! 10 pics was all I got & there was so much to see !!

    The race with 26 ex F1 cars on the grid was a sight & sound to behold !! Awesome !
    The eventual winner was Nelson Piquets Parmalat Brabham……… lapping at 65 secs per lap…… on a 1.937 mile circuit, that’s almost an 120 mph average !

    One of the JPS specials span on the chicane at the end of hanger straight, & he just got out & left it !! The marshals were flagging furiously as the rest of the pack were bearing down at 180 mph !!



    A few tacky pics…… sorry Jane.


    1] err ?? how much is this worth ??
    2] these guys were really gunning it down the craner curves, the little on in the pic was sideways almost all the way down !!
    3] now THAT’S a manifold !!
    4] mmmm…. Tasty !
    5] All the cars you see, were on the track… but the victor has his laurels.

    Carmel and I were there as well, it was pretty cool, but not nearly as good as last year!
