Some lovely cars in Woodcote Trophy. Did you get manage to get a shot of Malcolm Paul's Lotus X? Sadly a rear hub shaft failed so it lost drive and stopped on circuit. I gather the car has been fitted with shiny new ones for Goodwood!

1) Yes

2) I'll check!

No shot of the Lotus X I'm afraid Mike, someone on here must surely have one. Where's Brands when you need him?!

[John Turner]

OK, found one. My old friend Bob Bull has a nice frontal shot here:-

Thanks John and Bob, some more lovely shots there!

Of the races I actually got to see, the RAC Tourist Trophy Race for Pre 63GT cars was, for me the finest grid. A few pics from the rolling start and first couple of laps, but I'll also put up quite a few more later:-

Mike,
Glad to be of help, try looking at Classic 2011 Saturday (Green TR2 cover) and Revival 2009 for more pics of the car, if you are interested. All can be downloaded FOC. Just remember me when you make millions out of them.

Cheers,

Bob.

PS; John, not so much of the 'old friend' please. I am still young at heart
