Silverstone 911 record?

Post by 911hillclimber »

Very few early cars there today, I guess about 15. :(
We stood out because we were all colourful! :wink: :wink:

The total of 911's of all years was simply stunning. :cyclops:
The lap around the track was a total success after a long wait to get going!

I really do not know the total but certainly miles above 911.

I've seen 1208 quoted as the "official" figure. A logistical nightmare, too much waiting, but all worth it to be a part of a fantastic show!

Chriew did you attend to "keep them all in a neat colour co-ordinated line" If not why not ? I know it would have given us both enormous satisfaction.....

Sorry Andy, this was one occasion when I had to leave the OCD at the gate and just enjoy the chaos - and there was plenty of that!

My little 914 feeling like the odd one out amongst the 1200 or so 911s

I liked the fact that the organisers had arranged for two spitfires to perform directly over the parade. Whether intentional or not, it was quite ironic !!

It was good on the Sunday when the Aston's were on the track and they were flying over very British :)

Had a great time on track (posted some photos in 'past events') and was very happy to be part of it.
