Title: Silverstone WAC & BTTC - Saturday (dial-up, forget it)
Post by: Hedge on August 29, 2009, 11:21:59 pm: An awesome day. I hope the pictures do justice to the superb day I have just had. :notworthy:
I had a wee tear in my seeing the Big Bird fly. :ashamed:

I didn't see you. :P

I only paid a fleeting visit to the BTTC side of the circuit. Shook hands with Rob Collard, as I was at school with him and he remembered me, and then ~~ran~~ plodded back to the WAC. :wink:

Post by: chungster on August 30, 2009, 12:02:06 am: i paid the Â£20 which included the WAC but never went over to club/stowe side to get a closer look.

was over on inside of maggotts/becketts hairpin snapping the BTCC.

He climbed out and looked at the rear to start with. Then a doh! moment as he looked at the front. Very funny.

I do tend to agree. The Typhoon is awesome. Did it do a full afterburner take-off and if so have your ears recovered yet? :grin:

From what I can gather the Vulcan suffered from the low cloud base. Still a beautiful sight though but for sheer technical ability the Typhoon takes some beating. :notworthy:
