I met Clyde years ago at the Indy F1.  Great guy, don't judge the man  by the 
emails, or at least some of them!

Hi  Britt

Sounds like a great evening.

I sometimes get guilt pangs  because I once upon a time wrote rather  
harsh things about Clyde -  well this is the web isn't it, and we do  
these things on occasion  -  but meeting up at the British GP sounds  
like an excellent  idea and I am certainly up for it. The first round's  
on  me!

Best

Francis
