VSCC Pomeroy Trophy 2020 (Silverstone 15 Feb)

[boggissimo]

I've entered this, along with 7 other MX5s (not sure if any of them are on here). It's at Silverstone on Saturday 15 Feb and is FREE ENTRY for spectators.

There are some handling tests in the morning, followed by sessions lapping the full GP circuit in the afternoon, and the mixture of cars is very entertaining - oldest car this year is from 1917, right up to a Porsche Cayman GTS and Alfa 4C, with pretty much everything in between (Ford GT40, Skyline GTR, Pug 205 GTI, Aston DB3, etc). I'm car 38.

It's well worth a look and you can get up close to all the cars in the (National) paddock. Did I mention it's FREE?!

Having fun so far, looks like the other MX-5s are from MX5OC. Will add some pics later.

A few of my laps here, including a spin when I aquaplaned!

Yep, nothing broken, and it was in an area with no spectators so not much embarrassment either! In the later session people were spinning off at the end of the Wellington straight, right in front of the grandstand and suites people were watching from

Nobody crashed, though there were a couple of near misses!
