Demo run at Brands Hatch Motor Racing Circuit (UK)


Recommended Posts

Posted

Just got back from a great day at Brands Hatch, where I was able to take my Plymouth round the circuit a couple of times, as part of a demo run by the Vintage Hot Rod Association.
The meet included a round of the Nascar European Series, so there was a big crowd.
Great fun.
And the first time I've run the car with open headers...

Looks like you a good day there, shame the video wasn't longer were you on the Indy circuit or the full GP circuit? 

 

Reminds of when I was lucky enough to be invited to do the 100 years of Ford in Britain track parade in the Zodiac at the Goodwood Revival weekend in 2011.

Just the Indy circuit, Simon.
Although we did go round virtually the whole Grand Prix circuit to enter and exit the track, as there was racing taking place as we gathered.

No Greg,

It's a vintage Clymer helmet, from California.

Here's a picture of me wearing the helmet at Pendine Sands.

And an original Floyd Clymer ad from 1956.

I see you paid US $16.50 to buy the helmet. If you want to make a few bucks I will give you US $19.50 for it and I will pay the freight. What size is it as I have a big head :D
