Castle Combe Autumn Classic 3 October (FISCAR)

Fabulous photos David - not only my personal car consultant but also our official photographer and PR director!

It really is a great event.  Not in the league of the Revival or perhaps the Silverstone Classic but very relaxed, with great car clubs and with a great buzz to it.  I think I'd add the Castle Combe Autumn Classic to the Bentley Drivers Club Silverstone event as UK events we'll always try to make, although my Italian bike event clashes so we might need to do alternative years.  The relaxed environment surrounded by very knowledge people is a real draw. 

With one race still to go in 3 weeks time in Germany, thought is already being given to next year's fun :-)

Blimey, two Gilberns. I think the last time I saw one was in my Spotters Book of Cars in 1967.

Glad you avoided that!

Goodness me.  I had no idea the aftermath was that bad as the race was red flagged so I didn't go past the scene again and didn't see the cars in the paddock.  I do hope the drivers are okay.  Such a terrible shame that such iconic cars we damaged.

On a cheeky upside, it made me giggle to know that the Aurelia was in a race of 50s supercars!  Not technically wrong of course but so typical of the Mail ... ;-)

It says in the sub-headings that nobody was injured. So that was the Aston that Paul Hollywood drove in the programme on Sunday.
