    [Updates Saturday, 9th, PM: One lane is now open on the Northbound so not full closure but may change for tomorrow so please check.]

    You may be already aware of this but in case you are heading Silverstone tomorrow using the back route…

    A5 Northbound is closed until Monday for roadworks in/around Milton Keynes.
    There are several roadworks around Whiltlebury but not a huge event like F1 GP so either go through the village or A413 can be used addition to the A43 bypass.

    After an overcast and relatively cold early start to the morning it soon warmed up in time for the parade lap at about midday. I have to say it was without doubt the slowest 3 laps any car could have done st Silverstone, averaging about 20-30mph, health and safety gone mad I reckon and totally the reverse of our great 25 year annervsary parade lap tussle just 3 years ago.
    Unbeknown to me I drove up with a completely knackered battery after starting it after unplugging the digital pulse charger, quiet an experience having to jump pack start it in the middle of a grid locked Blackwall tunnel I can tell you.😱
    I thought I'd let you know Kaz that I managed to get back without cooking the alternator, good to see by the way.
    I was pleased to see lots of smiley happy faces yet again looking around my Senna tribute display NSX.
    I don't think I will ever get used to the lovely comments people give me about it.

    Pride, it's your turntable that's killing your battery….
    Also, despite using LED, too many of them will add up for current consumption.

    Joking aside, glad to hearing that you managed getting back to your place.

    Hope your ACG is fine and just dead battery.
    If it's a Honda one, should be covered under their warranty as I think you said it was only like 18months old.


    Hope everyone had good time.
