2019 Donington Historic Festival
September 10, 2019
If you’re a regular reader here, you’ll already appreciate the haphazard nature of my posting. Not everything is necessarily in date order and this is one of those events. Right back in May, I spent a day at Donington for the Historic Festival. My main focus was again on my good friends Steve Wright and […]
Dragstalgia 2019
August 22, 2019
With given access to a time machine the choice of destination is a fairly difficult one. First you’ve got the time period, then the location. A quick search on youtube for ‘drag racing 1960s’ confirms this to be one of my top choices of period. As for location pretty much any Drag Strip in the […]
UK Nationals
April 17, 2019
October 2018, Santa Pod Raceway. The UK Drag Racing Finals. The finale of the drag racing calendar. Which I completely forgot to post! However, with some killer cars turning out and a fantastic social event to catch up with lots of friends it still seems fit to post, even if I am 6 months too […]
Doorslammers at Santa Pod Raceway
June 15, 2018
Santa Pod, it’s been a while but even after all these years you still deliver the goods. Around five or six years I think since I last graced the hallowed ground with my presence. A place which has had a profound effect on my existence with regular visits through my teens up to my late […]
Classic Sports Car Club
May 3, 2018
This weekends sees another round of the Classic Sports Car Club (CSCC) so it’s about time I uploaded the best shots from the round at Snetterton a few weeks ago. I say a few but it was only a month ago at the beginning of April. Although you wouldn’t think it looking at the photos, […]
Damp with an unexpected shower of Porsche
April 12, 2018
Snetterton like most racetracks in the UK is an open wasteland subjected to whatever weather is on the horizon with nowhere to hide. We sat picnicing in the car on arrival. Perfectly timed for the lunch break as we could only make half a day. I sat eating my sarnie refreshing the ‘Dark Skies’ app […]
CSCC Brands Hatch – with added darkness
April 11, 2018
November, dark wet cold. Yes I know its April but I’ve had a crazy few months. If you follow me on Instagram and Facebook you would have seen a lot of these already. So I’ve had time to edit, just not found the time to post on here. Where was I….. Yes dark, wet cold […]
Something quicker than usual
June 13, 2017
I’ve wanted to shoot some Endurance/GT style cars for a couple of years and with the British GT Championship coming to Snetterton it was the perfect opportunity to see some of the Action. As you know if you’re a regular visitor to my website you’ll know its mainly focused on Classic and classic racing where […]
Ryde International Classic Car Show
September 22, 2016
We went to this event last year and thoroughly enjoyed it. When the opportunity came up this year to escape for a few days to the Isle of Wight it was a happy coincidence that it was on again while we were there. It’s a free event raising money for loads of charities put on […]
The Brooklands Reunion
August 19, 2016
The 7th of August, 1926. Brooklands motor racing circuit, the first British Grand Prix, organised by speed record legend Henry Seagrave. Fast forward 90 years and what better way to celebrate than at Brooklands itself, with some of the original cars from that very race in attendance. With these and other Grand Prix cars through […]
