Great day out with the lad: exciting racing, paddock access and some beautiful cars on show! First, the racing...

That looks like a great day out and you've taken some fantastic shots there - I love the Cooper Jaguar. Thank you very much for posting.

 

That was a very fine Lotus 9 in the gallery - a shame the were no 11s though as I'm a bit of a fan...

Looks like you had good weather and a great day out. I enjoy the historic racing too - always amazes me how hard they race, particularly when you stop to think about how much some of the cars must be worth. I can't say I've been to Donington though, but have got Le Mans to look forward to later in the year.

 

Good photos too:clap2:

Lovely fotos...reminds me about summer 1984 while I was joining the 25th anniversary of the Mini.

Great location and I was allowed to enter the boxes and everything including 2 laps on the track with my Mini...
