Practice Day at Harewood House
- Thread starter MartinGough
- Start date
Martin,
A very brisk trip up Harewood in a very nice example of the Southern GT,
takes me back to the eighties when I competed at Harewood in my Hillclimb Modsports Jaguar E type, I took up Hillclimbing and sprinting after many years circuit racing with other Modified E types, the sport is very exacting always looking for that fraction of a second improvement each run,
In 1989 at Harewood I won the Hatfields Jaguar trophy and also the Scrutineers trophy for the best prepared car, great days, often the class winner was a Porshe 911 driven very well by Tony Bancroft, aka Spotty Smith former genuine GT40 hillclimber.
All the best for this season with the SGT , may see you at Donnington , no track time for me, Im not so young these days, but still building GTs etc to earn a living.
cheers,
John.:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Hi Malcolm
Not painted yet so still in the grey gellcoat.

Just a shake down for the car and me. Some work to do for Donnington and the Isle of Man. Upping the rear springs and the pulleys continue to contact the bulkhead.
