VSCC Mallory Park

It's VSCC at Mallory this weekend with some decent grids.

May be the reason that the grids were light at BDC Silverstone this past weekend.

We have entered a wingless Talbot in Single Seater race which they used to do in period.Should be interesting.

This historic stuff is still one of the most cost effective ways to go racing.

I am sure someone will be there to do pics.

Don't think I am leaving the good weather in France.

As an aside why can't French drive round all these roundabouts, that have been built recently,properly?

John, I had to leave a job i liked after they gave me a French boss and he brought his buddies with him, so most of my answers are inappropriate for Family-viewing, so I shall restrain myself and just respond "Because they are French ..."

Surely Compte is going to have the answer?

Be aware that the way in to the circuit from the A447 has got a diversion on it for the next month at least. It is signposted.

What a cracking day, good weather, big crowd & some cracking racing. Well done the VSCC from the Marshals.

A gallery of almost 200 of my pics from the Mallory Park Vintage meeting yesterday. You can view them even if you 'don't do' Facebook. If you get a message box pop up saying 'log-in', simply click 'cancel' and carry on viewing.
Great meeting!

Lovely collection of shots, Andy. Great to catch you (albeit briefly) and agreed, a splendid meeting.

A nice set Andrew. Thanks for posting them.

Would have loved to be there but things conspired to keep me away.

Hi,

Some pictures from Sunday. Brilliant day, my first VSCC meeting. I have read about some of these cars in books by Prince Bira etc.

It was realy interesting to see them up close.
