It was Goodwood Revival 2010. I only say it from about 8.20 but there were E types, some cobra's and a few ferarris. Didn't see any Austins. The cobras were hardtops though. Was there more than one race?? |

musta been if you didn't see the austin a 35. a little dissapointing as the racing is much more enjoyable to watch compared to the modern stuff we get . |

ah the good old Mini van wheel base shines through Don't forget the dodgy "5 main" Crank Matt! I don't recall 'Dizzy' having access to one of them! 
It was a Swifty car that Dart!

Yeh, that was pretty cool. Obviously I was going for the Jem 
Pity they got the facts so wrong about the Dart - It was the steel prototype to the Marcos and Jem (not a car built to compete with them). Stephen Wray did a fantastic job of restoring it. |

Agree, the humble Mini Van shines in the corners alright. Nick Swift's no slouch on the race track, his 1460 Mini was a rocket (as you'd expect for a Swiftune built car - it's his company!). |
