Petrolheads,
Yesterday I was at Donington for the classic race meeting. This is one of
the top events in Europe with all the top dollar racers and cars including
Group C monsters. There were about 6 Healeys racing including a couple of
100S's and the Record car that was built by Jeremy Welch.
Re the recent thread on tyres, Avon are very much alive and well and they
had their works support truck in attendence and there is a photo of a
technician hand cutting treads for wet tyres. The red Aston Martin Ulster
number 38 is being driven by a lady and she was in 5th place until the car
developped a misfire. No rollbars or seat belts!
Check out the photos here
