London To Brighton Veteran Car Run 2019 

I walk to this junction. One year I didn't watch but drove to Wickes to get something in my Triumph 2500 PI and got lots of waves from spectators on what was a regular journey. Made me laugh!

(PS, there's also a steam waggon in the Mayor's procession as well as other things you might like.

Very much so, though some of the cars of that era looks spectacular. I try to do a film every year of the Veteran car run. Please don't forget to like, share, and if you like the channel (have you seen the steam waggon or steam engines too?) please subscribe! I am trying to get to 1000 subscribers.

Many thanks! As well as the veterans I also liked the Silver Ghost and fire engine.

I didn't realise they did that. Good to know. Please like and share, and if you like the channel, subscribe (and hit the notification bell).

@@BensWorkshop Done, you can see saturdays Regent Street Motorshow on my channel.

Many thanks, I will take a look shortly.

Cheers!

Cheers! It's an interesting thing to spectate on. They also pull into the pub on the other side of the road.

I'll look into that.... Sounds like an editing error....

I couldn't hear anything at that end of the video...

Ah yes. I'll see if I can beep that out later. Many thanks.

Many thanks. Frustration with motorists... Now edited.... Though it will take some time to have an effect.

I have no idea... They were not going slow enough for me to ask! :)

We did worse than just sit on there for 50 miles because once we got to Brighton we turned round and did the return journey the same day mostly in the dark! As did the Morris T-Type at 27:24 as both vehicles are owned by Imperial College union and are kept there in South Kensington.

You were on Jezibel? Or the truck? I understand from someone who has driven the fire engine that when changing up you need to apply the flywheel brake or you throw students off the back. From 20:15, registration AW 38 is 'Boanerges', a 1902 James and Browne also owned by Imperial. Please like, share and if you like the channel subscribe! (Also there's last years run, a shorter video on here.) Next year I will take extra batteries. I'll also try harder not to swear at normal drivers as editing it out is a pain particularly after upload.

I was on Jezebel the whole way down to Brighton and on Clementine (the Morris) for most of the journey back, driving one leg in three in either direction. The flywheel brake does indeed engage if you press the clutch down more than half way but doesn't noticeably slow Jez at all. It is simply to stop the input of the gearbox from spinning when trying to select first gear from stationary to avoid the gears crunching. The transmission brake however is very effective at stopping Jez and unsuspecting students may be thrown forward if suddenly applied! We try not to use the transmission brake though as it is designed only as an emergency brake and it does put excessive wear on the box joints. You're correct about that being Bo! We follow him down every year but he doesn't drive back, he gets a lift on a trailer. Bo does get a lot of use but not quite as much as the 1000+ mile/year that Jez and Clem get!

Not really, you can see clearly past the roundabout and the only people who would have right of way would be turning right on the other side of the road.
