Bob, it's supposed to be favourite images of the season, not a positive torrent However some great cars there:-

1) Stephen Bond in Lister 'Flatiron' Bristol. It was particularly good to see him out with us after that appalling accident in the Lotus at the Goodwood Members meeting early in the year
2) Keith Hampson, in the Sunbeam Alpine Le Mans mentioned in my first post
3) Alex Quattlebaum in LECo2, currently the quickest of the XPAG Specials. Alex flies over regularly from the States to compete. He also owns LECo1 which he is rebuilding
4) Paul Ziller in the TR2. The TRs have been notable for their absence from FISCAR grids in the past, but this year, Paul and fellow TR2 racer, Mark Hoble, have ensured that we had two of them at every round which was superb to see.
5) Darren McWhirter in the V12 Lagonda (looking like a big DB3S) on his way to winning our first running of The Tom Cole Trophy at VSCC Spring Start.
6) Chris Mann in the fabulous Alfa Romeo Disco Volante which he drives to and from our meetings. At Castle Combe Autumn Classic he drove it down from London, ran in two wet races and then drove back on the same day. He did so on his own, and I'm sure he wouldn't mind me pointing out that he is now in his 70s. A true old style enthusiast in the best possible way.

Bob, when I get around to my next favourite image, since they are freely given, thank you, I'm going to use one of your photos from the Bic Healey race.

Another one from me - and another VSCC event!

This was taken at the club's Measham Rally in January - an overnight navigational event that for the last few years has been held in North Yorkshire. This one was taken prior to the start with the crew doing some last minute map reading / planning, resting on the bonnet of their Fiat 508S.

So not an action shot - I just liked the look of concentration, the lighting and the overall atmosphere.

Next month the 'Measham' is moving south into the Midlands based at Bruntingthorpe Proving Grounds.

Great shot, Gary but looks all too cold for me!

This is the promised Bauble shot. It's of the dice for the lead in the Bic Healey race, between Jonathan Abecassis in his Austin Healey 100/4 and Drew Cameron in the Speedwell Sprite (which had been built for Drew by his father, Allan, who we very sadly lost to cancer at the beginning of the year). The dice went on for lap after lap, and they were often side by side as shown here. Having watched racing now for at least 50 years, mainly historics, this race was as close as any I have witnessed over the years. Jonathan won it by just over a tenth of a second.

Well it kinda comes into HRT as it's a HSCC championship. One heck of a pace lap when the SC is flat out and all I could see of the pole sitting car was his windscreen and roof. Definitely staying within five car lengths.

It features the Nash Healey that finished 3rd at Le Mans in 1952. The car is now owned by José M. Fernandez who very kindly entered it in the Tom Cole Trophy Race for Sam Stretton to drive. It hadn't been seen racing in the UK since 1951, and never before in its open 1952 form. A truly wonderful piece of history, it's outing generated even more enthusiasm from José to get it absolutely right so it is now having a lot of period correct detailing work undertaken and with any luck, we may see it out again in the latter half of next season.

In this photo Sam is seen talking to Paul Woolmer of Woolmer Classic Restoration (our main FISCAR sponsor providing our base and hospitality unit at our events). Behind is the lovely Sunbeam Alpine Le Mans of Keith Hampson which some of you may recall was later stolen but subsequently recovered intact. Every picture tells a story and this one tells several. I will dig out some more, but as I say, if anyone else wants to pick some of their favourite 2016 images, please do so.

Incidentally, I accept that some may have already seen this photo before but maybe not the story attached to it.
John -

Here's a nice historic photo of the same Hash Healey.

Thanks, Dougie. The car spent a long time in the States after its Le Mans adventure and many have thought that it was always the pale metallic blue that it now is, but others think that at Le Mans it was actually a pale green - colour photos of the time are both incredibly rare and subject to chemical changes which have still not resolved that one.

Rob Manson brought a couple of Specials from the States over to the UK to participate in a few races, hopefully a prelude to a bigger raid from a batch of these cars in a future season and here he is in the Baldwin Mercury Special in the Archie Scott Brown Trophy at HSCC, Snetterton meeting in early June. The second photo is of Paul Griffin's superb ex Archie Scott Brown Connaught ALSR in the same race.

You'd like to think so although the period photos suggest a lighter shade, and the number is incorrect if a representation of Le Mans configuration.

Also from the Woodcote Trophy race at the Silverstone Classic, and not the greatest of shots but one I want to include since it shows the stark contrast between two cars not only built in the same year (1955) but by the same manufacturer! The Lotus 6 FWA of John Cleland (not the ex BTCC JC!) and Malcolm Paul's very futuristic looking (at the time!) Lotus Mk10 Bristol. An interesting juxtaposition is the fact that the FWA in the 6 was a more modern engine than the Bristol, and went on to power the ubiquitous Lotus Eleven and many other small sports racers of the period. It took a lot of effort from Mike Anthony, who commissioned the car, to persuade Colin Chapman to build the Mk 10, but what a wonderful piece of machinery:-

John, My research shows that the 1950 Le Mans Nash Healey was number 14 as shown on the model. Am I confused (as always)?
