i went and had a good day, with the lights on all cars it really brought back the le mans feeling! The noise of the cars is great, the continual buzz in the air is fantastic and as crowds arent that big you can easily move around taking new positions all day.
Saw the Evo mag lambo parked up with a number of super cars, mclaren F1, new and old GT40's, numerous lambos, GT2 and GT3, porsche GT, corvettes and a sting ray, great to have a chilled look, again without too many disrespecting people, like found at your run of the mill car show.
An Audi needs to be racing the 908's though, the pescalaro offers some competition but not the same pressure as the Audi, nice to see the porsche spyder too!

Late reply = small child taking up all my time!
Was a cracking day - could have just sat in the VIP welcome centre car park and looked at the metal - RS4 Carerra GT3, Marcos, TVR
Good weather and my first time at Silverstone. Parked in the centre of the track near the Lambos and Ferraris in the supercar enclosure - saw my first SLR 722 along with Corvette stingray, GT40 (old and new) and some other mouthwatering exotica.
Was part of the Bruneau team and could wander round the pits and walk the grid at the beginning of the race which was awesome - not as big as I expected though
Not may spectators - 10000 tops
but would recommend it to anyone as you could pick your seat in the grandstand and wander from corner to corner at leisure.
Top day out!
And yes those corvettes were LOUD
