Fantastic Variety of Unlikely Cars in HRDC Race at Donington 14 Apr 2014 (News)
Early-period cars range from the rarities of David Wylie's Armstrong Siddeley Sapphire and Malcom Verey's Jensen 541R (as raced as a saloon by John Webb in period), to the more familiar Jack Sears-type Austin A95 Westminster of Nick Naismith and the Jeff Uren-style Ford Zephyr Mk2 of Alistair Dyson. Mid-period cars include the rare works-style MG1100 of Steve Atkinson, the original, ex-Lawrencetune Vauxhall VX4/90 of Paul Clayson and the stunning Graham Hill-homage Jaguar Mk2 of Simon Drabble, while the later-era cars are typified by the Alan Mann-liveried Lotus Ford Cortina Mk1 of Howard Wise and the Sir Gawaine Baillie-inspired Ford Falcon of reserve entry Mike Gardiner. HRDC Founder and Race Director, Julius Thurgood, was upbeat about the forthcoming race: "Now that most historic touring car races are usually polarised by specific models of cars that are considered to be the fastest cars of their type, it is rare to see a greater variety of marques and models competing together. -

And the heavily laden Bentley R-type of the Japanese crew of Kazuyuki Sugiyanma missed a Time Control today, so too did Kimberly Widrick from Canada in a Chevrolet Impala. -
