At Silverstone this weekend

Post by Kev »

I'm up there all 3 days :D

Saw a silver 09 plate rocco in the car park.

Here's mine nestling in a field next to an M3.

and our man Jenson.
Not the best pic but I've cropped it down. I've also got a much much better zoom for tomorrow. Might do the heli trip too.

I was there yesterday (Friday) SWMBO won tickets and stuff from work which has now been taken over by Santander.
and had an excellent day. grandstand seats at the end of the start/finish straight just before Copse. Free Kangaroo TV. ( what a fantastic piece of kit this is !! )
I have never been before. Lots of people had said about the noise and speed of the F1 cars and that the telly does not do them justice :eyepop: :eyepop: :eyepop: OMG !! they were not kidding.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend. I am not jealous :grumpy: :grumpy: :grumpy:

Yeah I've got the Kangaroo TV too.
There's no way you can follow what's going on without it.

I was in Luffield A as well!
R97 up at the back in the middle.

It was a camera I borrowed off a friend.
A Canon EOS 450D with a 90/300 lens

I know nothing about photography so I hope that means something to you :)

Yeah I thought it was ok but you didn't really see any action.

If I went again I think I'd go to Stowe or Vale.
