Bob, must complement you on the #972 selection. Great content and super photos. Fabbo stuff. Love them all.
Is the Maserati an A6CGS? Not up there with the 300S Maserati for stunning beauty but still quite tasty. |

I am pleased you like the pics, EB, and yes it is the A6GS, a very effective 2.0 litre of the 50's. Roy Salvadori used to race Sid Greene's car in the UK, painted dark green. Made a nice change from the usual British makes of the day.

A memory of club racing in 2011, hopefully you may recognise a few old friends.

Something a 'little' more up-to-date, perhaps.

Re post 982: Only the top three are Juniors, Scorpion, Stanguellini and Lola Mk2.

A great shame the Vulcan is no longer able to be displayed, but at least I’m lucky enough to have seen them ‘in period’ as well as in recent times. Remember a particular air show where all 3 ‘V’ bombers were together- Valiant, Victor and Vulcan. Awsum! The FJ Stanguellini has to be about the prettiest Junior ever, almost matched by the Volpini (also Italian, unsurprisingly!)- Probably why the values of them are so high now...... |

The 500 Mondial must be one of the automotive equivalents. One thing I can say is that HRT has shown me to appreciate the Formula Junior cars. I always ignored them in the past, but not now. Thanks again bauble for airing your talents so to speak. This thread is making the off season quite enjoyable. |

I also remember them flying in period . But about 12 years ago I was right near Waddington when I heard this tremendous sound & there was the Vulcan . Did not know about it before then , but it had just been rebuilt , got its airworthiness certificate & was getting ready for its first air show . It was just awesome to see , and hear , in the air . |

Got to do something to pass the time. Don't get too close, you might catch something horrible. |

Those Brooklands Trophy pics were interesting.
So only original cars allowed at Goodwood? I’m older than some of those and certainly I was born after the war ( just ! ) |

John I'm sure you realised long ago that the Revival is more Hollywood that Historic, no doubt before long Tom Cruise will be 'winning' the TT Celebration in a heroic final stint to take the lead out of the Chicane an the last lap..
