    Ever since they were current cars I have loved AC Cobras, especially the racing versions s it would have to be on of them…

    I believe this is the first time the 1937 Type ‘C’ Auto-Union has been chosen on here. Extra points for such a unique car. 1937 Type ‘C’ Auto-Union.

    Imagine you are already travelling at 150mph in fifth gear and a prod of the loud pedal provokes instantaneous wheel-spin! An astonishing car, handled by exceptional men over 80years ago at the Donington Grand Prix….the 1937 Type ‘C’ Auto-Union.

    My son normal marshal at the Donington historic festival, but this year we will be going to watch together, after telling him hes got to watch the mini coopers do battle with the big boys, they may lose it on the straight, but you know at the next bend they will be down the inside, with the drivers hands doing a dance on the steering wheel, and the rear inside wheel up in the air, real racing at it’s best

  • Alan Patrick says:

    Although not an actual racing car, the sight of a driver wrestling with the wheel of a Mk7 Jaguar, a vehicle designed to transport the gentry in luxury, in a historic saloon car race is a glimpse of the motor racing of a bygone age. I much prefer it to the sport of today.

  • Bryan Evans says:

    Jim Clarks Lotus 25 is my favourite racing car. What he achieved with this car in 1963 is truly amazing and will always stand out in record books forever more.
    A visit to his Museum is a definite must do for any racing fan.

  • Brain says:

    This is a strange one but when I was 5 years old my mum and dad took me to see the Lombard rac rally at Blenheim palace and I have a picture of a triumph tr7…. My Dad said I was so excited and I believe if they hadn’t taken me I would love racing and cars as much as I do today.

    Lotus and the hey days of Jim Clark. Which model? Well, so many to choose from, I guess start with the Lotus 49 when Jim Clark won on the cars debut in 1967, and it provided him with his last ever win in a Formula 1 car. But add in models such as the Lotus 25, 32, 33….the list is endless, and it makes you realise the genius of Colin Chapman. When one thinks of the budgets they worked with in the 1960/70’s and compare that with to days Formula 1 Teams! The Coventry Climax engine was so successful, and beautifully developed over many years. It is the appearance of cars from that Era and the fact it was hands on expertise to win races. So sad that Jim Clark died in 1968 aged only 32. It is the names and all of the cars from that period. A time when a driver got into a car knowing full well that fatal accidents were common place. I would love to think that winning tickets might enable me to meet some of the drivers from that Era, although sadly there are not many left.
