That truck fixing the armco looks to have sunk. Could be a problem.

Sorry, being doing a few laps in the 73 vette - thanks to in-car link on Speed TV...........bloody awesome!!!
Fascinating so far, Pugs can run a lap longer it appears
Punctures seem to be mainly all rears, and on fresh rubber?
Can't believe 4 1/2 hrs in

52 still listed as running but the Oak is just about hanging in and one of the Oaks has been in the pits for a long time. Both Astons listed as rtd. Managed just 7 laps between them.

ACO said 262,000 this year. About the same as last year.
Question: when watching on-board footage, why do the tail lights of the car in front flash on and off? Its not a reflection from the following cars lights as they flas from side to side. When you look at the same cars from track side the lights don't flash. Been puzzling me for ages.

Heard Hindy say that its something to do with camera 'frame speed', he likened it to same effect as wheels appearing to rotate backwards when seen on film/tv Enjoy the barby, must be beer time?
