Just want to say thanks for the link to this - I went to the races in the afternoon and saw 5 of the 6 races. I took my three year old, the wife and a mate. It was good fun, the elise racing was good, GT cars were good (Dodge viper won, there were a couple of ferraris, lambos, 911s etc). The toyo tyres series races were good with a real variety of cars, couple of XJSs, RX7s and lots of BMWs - even a mk1 ford capri, that had lots of smoke coming out of it by the end.
The place was not crowded at all so we could go round to all the parts of the track and look close up in the paddock.
There were quite a few old Lotus in the car park, two excels, one was a dark red one for sale aty £5495. Saw a silver excel on the M40 motorway going back toward london, plus the dark red for sale one went past us as we turned off the M40. There was also a nice yellow S2 esprit, and a couple of Europas. Also a black Eclat automatic.
Anyone on here own any of those? Sadly I went in the volvo estate as I had my kid with me. Plus the Eclat is off the road waiting to become part excel!
The silver Excel on the M40 heading to London could well have been me on my way back from Donnington. I don't think silver is a very common colour (for Excel's).
, and it is free entry for spectators.
Mine was the Pacific Blue Excel a few cars away from the one for sale.
