If only we had kept Brooklands circuit here in the UK instead of hacking bits off it, It would have been a terrific place to go. Montlhéry is a very impressive place with a fabulous line up of vehicles , well worth a visit
Tony and Pam, wonderful. Thank you for this splendid video showing the cars of the past. A great event that, while In France, a long way away, we can participate from your video and photos.
I was there and it was a great event. But the heroes were the owners of the Beast of Turin and another 20s land speed record car- who drove them both there on the public roads from Bristol! Really unbelievable, they should have made a documentary about just that.
Morning Richard. She is called the "Beast of Turin" see this link. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_S76_Record The most impressive thing is to watch the driver/owner starting her on the starting handle. When she pulls away from a standing start you see the flames from the exhaust, hear the rumble and she accelerates the revs hardly change but she moves away very quickly. A really impressive motorcar.
