Total of 11 cars, Dragonladys NSX unfortunately absent, convalescing after a CEL scare…


The only pic I have of the other 3 cars on the Friday alas was photo-bombed…

some great pics of nsx's. really like the yellow with the black roof examples and the orange and blue colour models.
blue probably my favourite though, but how rare are they.

its good to see so many in the UK still on the road and it will be good to see the tax disc go lol.

great pics and thankyou for sharing.

This year’s Silverstone Classic – highlights of which will be screened on ITV 4 next week – was another exceptional record breaker.

Already firmly established as the World’s Biggest Classic Motor Racing Festival, last month’s three-day extravaganza attracted a record crowd plus a new world record number of race entries. The unrivalled event also staged the world’s biggest ever parade of Grand Prix cars as well as special celebrations to mark Maserati’s centenary and 50 years of the Ford Mustang.

A crowd of 94,000 flocked to Silverstone – the biggest in the award-winning Classic’s 24-year history – and they were treated to 24 on-track grids featuring no fewer than 1,125 entries which covered the full spectrum of motor racing history. The unprecedented number of entries tops last year’s figure of 1,113 and establishes yet another new global benchmark for any motor sport event.

A special one-hour television programme showcasing many of the Classic’s most notable moments will be screened on ITV4 at 21:00hrs on Thursday 14 August and will be aired again at 19:00hrs on Saturday 16 August and at 13:05hrs on Sunday 17 August.



.. never did manage to walk over to the mustang bit... at least the village grandstand with a roof was open this year :)
