Top Gear At Silverstone

(Requesting that this thread's title be altered to mention that it's a spoiler)

Kinda obvious, but I'll change it nonetheless.

I wonder why they brought the Stig along this time? Do you think it's because they want to try and win and give James as little of the driving as possible?

 

[IceBone]

Or maybe cause it's a 24 hour endurance race and 6 hours per driver is a lot less stressful than 8.

REALLY looking forward to this one. It's gonna be great!!!

Will it be televised??

 

[Donington]

I'm certainly going!
I saw Britcar at Castle Combe earlier this year, awesome series with DTM, V8star, Le Mans, BTCC and modified road cars all racing each other.

It was televised last year, Icebone, so it might be this year too, depends what channels you get.

 

[IceBone]

None british, so i'll have to rely on web casts and/or rips.

But a 24 hour rip will be over 11 gigs. D:

Weren't they growing their own petrol/diesel as of last season? *hint*hint*

Do Radio LeMans cover it? And is it streamed anywhere?

Yeah, bringing it up again for those to all think about it..

But during the season they mentioned it would be "delicious petrol". Mistaken?

Edit; 59:37 on the VUk Rip @ 09x05

 

[Adunaphel]

they grew rapeseed, which can be used to make Biodiesel.

BRILLIANT!!

 

[GraemeH]

Damn, I might try to get a little trip down to this if it isn't too late

 

[WirelessMonkey]

[slick007nick]

[Mopar Man]

Fifth gear should be in there too, a battle of the gears! I'd be rooting for TG of course!

 

[Peter3hg]

Damn, I am away for those dates. What a bastard.

Yes Hindy will be there and there should be live timing too. You can still download last years event. There will mentions and previews on Globecast. Listen to Midweek Motorsport on Wednesday's or subscribe to the podcast which they eventually put up. Send in questions to ask Jezza at 3am in the morning

While I think of it, worth checking out the LeMans start on the Radio LeMans site

It's almost interesting enough for me to fly over and watch...but I dunno on this little notice.

So apparently, my self-edited signature (original image thanks to TG mag) is so awesome, others wanna use it.
