I wholeheartedly apologise for any distress caused.

I just thought you should know.

I got quite excited as I approached it in the paddock, only to be disappointed. As I got round the other side and saw the Porsche, I unintentionally blurted out "For fks sake!" out loud and got strange disgruntled looks from the two guys with it.

An uneasy silent stand off followed as they were obviously thinking "What a cock" and on my part due to some kind of sixth sense telling me that they were probably thinking "What a cock." At this point I decided to cut my losses and slope off to much muttering and head shaking.

As is normal practice in these situations for any seasoned paddock sg, I withdrew to the infield for a while and sought comfort and consolation in the obligatory overpriced slime burger with cheese and carefully considered my next move.

Very sad really. (Not me. The truck.)

A.G - I nearly took the exact same photo's in the paddock.

I got quite excited when I saw the trailer but was quickly deflated when the Porsche came into view.

I initially thought there might have been a TVR in the GT race but no such luck.

Bummer.

Was yours the blue Griff I saw parked between Clay Hill and Druids?
Yes - I was parked there at about 1.30pm - 2pm.

You're right, there weren't many TVR's there and not that many spectators either on which turned out to be a cracking days racing with some proper cars on track.
