Silverstone Classic 24/25th July

We attended the Silverstone Classic over the weekend of the 24/25th July.

We entered two races, "Gentleman Drivers One Hour Enduro" and the "Historic V8 Touring Cars". We had two cars racing the "Gentleman Drivers One Hour Enduro" - our Shelby Mustang GT350 and Phillip Walker's Jaguar E-Type in which we came 15th and 6th respectively. In the "Historic V8 Touring Cars" race we came 2nd and 3rd in our Ford Falcon.

We received great support from friends and family and also four or five of our valued customers. It was great to see you all. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Phillip Walker for the drive in his magnificent Jaguar E-type.

The cheering from the BRDC clubhouse could be heard in the cockpit as we crossed the line 15th in the Shelby, 6th in the E-type and 2nd in the touring cars.

I must make mention of my good friend Westley Harding making the podium in our shared Ford Falcon after a fantastic race. Great to see you on the pace Wes!

Our next historic event will be the Masters Meeting to celebrate the reopening of Donington Park on September 4th & 5th. Hope to see you there!
