Not sure Tilke was responsible but you're right - the circuit has been butchered. Stowe, Club and Abbey have been emasculated and to a lesser extent Copse as well. Don't get me started on the complex!
Group C should still be with us now, this is when sportscar racing was good, can't stand the LMP open-top cars, they look ugly compared to the Sauber C9 or Jaguar XJR-9.
@motorsportnutter4eva How refreshing was this years Le Mans? :D It wasn't -as- good, but it was a step in the right direction.. just wish they weren't running diesel engines. They sound awful!

Awesome vid. Say, Is it Eddie Cheever Sr or Eddie Cheever Jr. driving the Jaguar? The commentator didn't seem specific.
