Hi List,
Drove to Silverstone for the FIA GT race meeting - I was scrutineering for
today only. Saw 2 big windmills that were turning and generating
electricity for some one...
The new pit complex was impressively large and nice and new. Of course a
lot of stuff hasn't been finished off yet and some garage toilets had not
lights. When I found a garage toilet with a light I could see it had the
small/large option flush but no bidet (that's a bum washer for those
non-European types that don't know what a bidet is).
Checked a mixture of GT3 cars in the morning and spend the afternoon doing
virtually all the Lamborghini challenge cars. Because the new pit complex
is on part of the circuit that's too far to walk to from the old pit
complex I saw parts of the circuit I've not seen much of before. I'm not sure
if
I'll be at new pit complex for any other meetings this year (I don't do
the F1 meeting) but it would neat to spectate from the new pit lane wall
(officials are allowed to do that sometimes as part of the job).
Saw a really neat Sprite in the officials' car park. It was mine. I
drove it home with the roof down which was just as well as there was slow
moving traffic at one point.
