Lydden Hill - 12th April - Classic Touring Cars

[Joffan]

Hi all,

Back at Lydden in Kent for the first time this year for a meeting involving sprinting in the morning and then a race meeting in the afternoon for Tin Top Classics and the BARC Intermarque series which runs just about everything...

So here's some photos. Weather was varied as per usual!

1. Liam Doran took his Dad's car out in the sprint to test a gearbox or two... I suppose if you own the place...

Cheers Pons. They're the Alan Mann colours so his Escort would indeed have been in those colours. Gorgeously prepared cars.
