Mallory Test Day - October 18th
What a difference a week makes, last week is was all wet & gloom, this morning everyone had a puposeful look.
A seriously eclectic mix of cars took to the track on what was an open pitlane. 4 racing Ferrari Sportscars of assorted value - A P3, P4 275 & 312. were probably the highlight, with the 1st 3 + Alan Minshaws Ford Malibou all being driven by Ian Flux. Not to be out done, Simon Hadfied was out in A Lotus F2, Chevron B16 & the 312. Maybe not quite so exotic, but still impressive were the 2 Coopers (one a Bristol). Also out were assorted MR2's (one being tested by Daryll Beckwiths Father),& Kit Cars practicing for Sundays 750MC meeting, along with a Mk2 Cavalier, a Fiesta, a Jaguar D Type, a 911 GT2, an AC Cobra an MGB and a couple of F.Ford 2000's + Peter Daly in his FFord 1600obviously getting ready for the Walter Hayes in a couple of weeks. Certainly beats going to work! |
