Title: Re: Brands Hatch - Group C / F1 Masters Post by: Snoring Rhino on May 25, 2007, 09:59:45 am Shame I cant make it, Brands is my Fravorit circuit, it'll be interesting seeing those Group C's trying to get around Druids.
Title: Re: Brands Hatch - Group C / F1 Masters Post by: Brad Zarse on May 25, 2007, 01:59:09 pm :o In the rain as well by the looks of it....I think maybe a trip from Paddock Hill Bend up to Druids might be in order with the camera...I can see a lot of squeezing likely up there!!
Any other takers? Will see if I can did out a CA flag to take along for recognition purposes! Title: Re: Brands Hatch - Group C / F1 Masters Post by: Nordic on May 25, 2007, 05:41:59 pm I have now found a list of drivers and numbers for the Grp C race

Apologies if these photos all seem a little focused on two or three cars, but they have been uploaded for the drivers of those cars, and took ages, so haven't been able to do the others as yet.

The cars were beautiful and very evocative of times gone by.
The weather for the rest of the weekend was dreadful, I'm lucky that my role keeps me inside and I only ventured out on a couple of occasions. It was such a shame as the programme was wonderful and the Masters organisation and MSV had put together a good event.

The Saturday afternoon picnic was nice all those cars Whilst the Clearways wicket looked worse than the one at The Oval after the Free George Davis people had been at it, I have to say KK makes a much better cricketing snapper than Dinger makes a batsman. Could this be a new branch of your profession Keith? Mind you, I don't suppose you'd much rellish two months in the winter following the circus around somewhere like Australia/NZ/South Africa/Caibbean/Sri Lanka/India (delete as applicable). ;) Title: Re: Brands Hatch - Group C / F1 Masters Post by: keithk on May 29, 2007, 05:21:38 pm Whilst the Clearways wicket looked worse than the one at The Oval after the Free George Davis people had been at it, I have to say KK makes a much better cricketing snapper than Dinger makes a batsman.
