Am looking forward to pedalling up the hill at Shelsey again this year and always enjoy the eclectic mix of machinery. I just thought it might be nice to see what we can expect in 2019? Kicking things off, I bought this from a chap in Athens a couple of months ago and have been making it my own ever since. The most difficult task (so far) has been squeezing my generous girth into those Cobra seats. Anyway, looking forward to seeing familiar faces and cars. Pics, 1000 words etc.

Would it be acceptable to run a stock Vauxhall/Bedford Midi 2.4TD van up the hill? 🤔

Just in case people assumed no one would take a diesel van up it... It got a serious reply - we have had all sorts go up the hill Forward control Land Rover things American Hearses Little Tykes cars powered by lawnmower engines (Need to talk to Paul about that one) There is not a year when we don't have people in the crowd saying only at an RR event would someone take "XXX" up the hill

Hi, hoping to take my Nissan Skyline (1995)R33 up the hill this year! Been for the last few years on Worcester retro stand, but never applied until now! It is a Gtst 2.5 straight 6 turbo with a Gtr kit fitted. Resprayed this year in a dark red with copper bronze wheels. It has quite a few Nismo modifications too.
