Brilliant images Tim!
While I’ve never attended a vintage race across the pond, I must admit that they always appear to really be getting after it on the track. Man oh man, I bet this was a great race to cover. Great pictures – thank you.
Perfection…what a collection of photos. Thanks to SCD for travelling to races I cannot attend and making me feel like I was there. Marvelous.
