It has taken me until today to sort out my pictures from last Saturday. I took more than 1700 pictures. Here are a few.
Sorry - haven't had time to crop them to the ideal.




This Austin A35 was fitted with a Ford 5litre V8 and the gearbox from a Toyota Supra. Very little, apart from the shell and the instruments was standard. The two chaps that built it went to great lengths to make to look standard. The wide wheels don't look different until you get close. Suspension was lifted from a Lotus (Excel ?).

And a few more:

Thanks Paul for a lovely selection and sharing your day with us all - that A35 is wonderful, did you hear it rumbling at all ?

Sadly not.

And thanks Richard.

Great photos Paul, thanks for posting as we missed the event this year

Thank you Jon.

Cracking photos Paul. Sadly I couldn't make it this year due to a family commitment so I'm enjoying seeing your photos all the more.

Thanks Andy.

We are very lucky living near Donington Park - the Historic is a lovely event. Apparently, they are hoping to return to running a bigger event next year.

Gives a good flavour of the event Paul.
Thanks for sharing the photos!
Presume this is your new, lighter weight, photo outfit?

Thanks Graham.

And yes - all Olympus. All the track action is taken with the 100-400 Zoom. It really is a wonderful lens. The autofocus is very fast too - even at longer focal lengths. The camera has an easy to access feature that allows you to change the part of the frame used for autofocus - it makes a big difference with fast moving subjects. Very pleased so far.
