:wave: Awesome, Phil, Love It! God, that Senna Toleman shot really hurts... my biggest professional misguidance... I was approached by that team's manager in 1983 at Long Beach, while I was hand-lettering some race cars in the Convention (paddock) building. He was impressed with my work and invited me to do their liveries for the 1984 season, but being 22 I couldn't figure out how to "go over" and keep my lady. So, I passed, and regretted it ever since! :blush: But, I've "kept" my girl for 33 years, so was a fair trade. :kiss:

Thanks, Giraffe, I was hoping you'd ID these guys. Wow, Jackie Oliver, one of my childhood Can-Am and F5000 Heroes, loved the guy! :up:

Travelled down from the land of the sporran and have only one question of the TNFers who were there. What is it with the shoulder bags? You know who you are and there are some clues in the fantastic pictures that have been posted.

On the HSCC stand on Friday, John Burton was presented with a splendid plate by Helen Malkie of Chevron Racing in recognition of his success in the Martini Trophy series for 2 litre sportscars. Helen is pictured here explaining that this trophy was originally presented to Jochen Rindt.

Ha I told one of the Maxxis girls to move out of shot (politely) so I could take a pic of the car today :D Had enough girls draped around car shots tbh. Was really impressed with the Classic Team Lotus stand, the Caterham stand and one of the girls on the Pirelli (I think) stand - the only one that didn't look inflated and botoxed to death. Did Ferrari and HRT not show again or did I miss them?

ALso came down from the land of sporran, have failed to return as the car suffered Angloitis or something and has currently died and I'm stuck in Walsall of all places. Really I think it took the huff because of all the shots I took of the chrome version on the BMW stand.

The most famous person born in Walsall left when he was six weeks old. I assume he was too unwell to move before then.

We did start with a plastic bag but got "upgraded" thanks to Bilstein who supplied us with a snazzy cloth version. Was going to speak to you and that other well known TNF poster also sporting a shoulder bag but we were in such a rush thanks to car problems on the way down.
