Just got back home (we stayed over Sunday evening) a great day marred (unfortunately) by the morning weather. Still a great day. The supercars (Adam) were quite a sight as were the touring cars (incl. ex Ratzenburger M3). Didn't get to see though did hear the F1 cars

Hi Nick,
It was good.
'afraid I didn't take a single photo! Colin (Rear) from theMotor.net was there. He's intending to do a report on the event and is happy for me to post a link to his report when one is available.


Just to whet your appetite:

Hope you don't get a letter from Dorset Police. Notice that speed camera at 1:31? I have the reciprocal view of this, I'll upload it over the weekend.

Not yet! They were monitoring speed using mobile speed guns as the limit was set to 60 for the demonstration track.
In a similar vein, when we were taken to Southbourne on Saturday evening in a rolling roadblock convoy, the Chief Inspector who briefed us noted that any tickets would be revoked as we were told not to stop, taking us through several red lights with cameras - what a buzz!
