Re: British GP - new format
Sorry Minx.....
In my younger day I used to go and watch the motor bike racing at Mallory Park, seat of your pants stuff....
and the riders took risks too....
The atmosphere was awesome, the riders used to switch off their engines and wait for the flag....That few moments of silence before the start you could hear a pin drop.....Even the spectators went quiet, then all hell broke loose.....
Grass track racing was my favourite when I was older....All different classes of cars would race around a poorly marked grassy field, although bumping was allowed, it wasn't the aim of the race, just making it around the the requisite number of laps and finishing in first place was the challenge. I enjoyed it so much, we even entered a car...
Spectators parked around the track, and woe betide anyone who parked too close......There were casualties....
