2023 C5 of the Year Finalist - Unmodified
The Silverstone Classic 2011
Had a great day out at Silverstone yesterday. It was the practice day for the weekend racing so the Corvettes are not very well represented yet. I'm sure there will be more arrivals over the weekend. One C5 in the CCCUK area so far but hopefully more to come. I didn't take my car as I went along with a friend (so I arrived in a Porsche 911 Turbo
)
This weekend is the 50th Anniversary of the E Type Jaguar and there must have been well over 200 E Types of all shapes and sizes. There were more flooding in as we left so the final tally will be much higher.
It was great to see all the enthusiasts being allowed into the garages while the racers were preparing. Also got the chance to see the new Pit Complex at very close hand.
There was also some action on the track with a couple of Corvettes waving the banner.
Enjoy the pictures.
