Postponed from a snowy January, the VSCC New Year Driving Tests at Brooklands was met with an overcast but dry Sunday morning, perfect weather to hoon around the 1900s race track and grounds in vintage cars.
The Vintage Sports Car Club caters for all pre 1930s cars and the driving tests aim to put the old motors and drivers through their paces over a variety of challenges. The cars were parked up around the Club House whilst the drivers signed on and the marshals readied the courses.
The tests all run simultaneously, with cars moving around the site from one to the next providing non stop action, first up was the test hill, starting on the flat it climbs up 1:8 through 1:5 to 1:4 at the very top, once at the summit it was on the brakes and round the corner to stop astride a line, before reversing into a garage and then forwards to the finish line.
;D
