I was at the Cup with a dozen others in 1978(?), we arrived at 7.00am and were the first in. Set three cars in a square against the rail at the finish line, fired the barbeque up and cracked open the bubbly followed by the beer. Totally smashed by 11.00 am, slept till 2ish, woke up with 6 folks stood on my roof jumping up and down! (spent a day getting the dents out).

Get your black tie and dinner jacket together with wifes' suspenders below! Great day out, never forget it, enjoy
