After enjoying the fun-filled adventure of the previous Malle Mile last year, there was no way I was going to miss this years event. Hosted at a new venue, Grimsthorpe Castle, and with many social restrictions lifted in the week before, the 2021 Malle Mile did not disappoint.
When a friend mentions they’ve had a new set of tyres fitted for an upcoming track day, it’s only natural to ask where, when and can I come take some photographs, isn’t it? When that friend is Charles Evans and the location is Goodwood Motor Circuit, you know it’s going to be a fun day.
MSVR delivered a thrilling weekend of racing from both single-seaters and closed wheel cars. With a chance to stretch their legs on the full Grand Prix Circuit at Brands Hatch.
How often do you get the chance to watch historic sports cars running full chat on GP circuits? The Masters Historic Racing team deliver even more excitement by pitching big muscule cars against smaller-engined sports prototypes and GT cars. It’s a chance to see Chevrons take on Lolas, Porsche fighting Ferrari, alongside Ford, Austin and many others.
Romance, history, speed – Spa-Francorchamps has it all and what better way to experience this wonderful racetrack than with the sights and sounds of classic race cars. There’s also the added bonus of a fantastic road trip if you avoid the motorways, time to fire up the 911 and head on over to the mainland.
The GRRC Spring Sprint is a perfect opportunity for a spirited drive down to Chichester to watch a broad mix of machinery thrashing out lap times. It’s also relatively quiet spectator-wise.
Having seen images and footage from previous Members Meetings, I knew I had to attend. To do so, you need to be a GRRC member. I joined as a Fellow primarily so I could attend this event over any of the other benefits and I think it was worth the joining fee.
Another chance to watch a great mixture of different rally cars racing on timed stages. It’s also a refreshingly different use of Brands Hatch – how ofter do you get to see cars racing through the pits, the wrong way?
I just had too many images and too much excitement just for one post.
A three-day festival celebrating the sights and sounds of road racing cars and motorcycles that would have competed during the circuit’s hay day period of 1948–1966.
Unless you’ve been hiding under a bush or have zero interest in Porsches you cannot have missed the fact that year has been a notable one for the German car marque. Porsche have done a great job of celebrating the 70th anniversary of the first Porsche sports car, built in 1948.
Another month and another trip to Brands Hatch, this time for the Masters Historic Festival. Taking advantage of the full GP circuit the drivers were free to stretch the cars to their limits. The packed programme included FIA Masters Historic Formula One Championship, FIA Masters Historic Sports Cars, Masters Pre-66 Touring Cars and Historic Formula 2. Plus other support races from CSN Group YTCC and a Gentlemen Drivers.
