The safety car inevitably came out to clear up the mess and at the restart I lost 2 places to David Gathergole and a Kiwi in a Mcrae F5000. That didnt last long however as David spun at paddock on the next lap and I inherited the 2 places back again. The remainder of the race reulted in a great battle with Mike Hibberd and David Wild which I came out the better and finished 6th. The race was won by Greg Thornton in a Surtees TS11 after a close battle with 2 Kiwis in f5000's.
Your Brabham looked lovely if I may say so, Brabham

As did the rest of the cars on show. A great day out, made all the more so with the free stuff for kids, shame the ice creams were a rip off but everything else was great.
