Nice! Love the 127 and the Allard! The Allard is 69 years old It’s driver is 85! Respect to that man😎 And managed to do 198mph together at Bonneville  I believe they've won the Speed Trials more than once. Great pics, I thought the field was quite sparse (I say that every year though) but it's still better than not going to the Speed Trials. And for only 15 quid still one of the cheapest motorsport or even automotive days out anywhere |

I've knocked some photos together from the mostly curse word ones I managed on the day... having The Boy nagging me about ice cream, stalling like an ox to play on his phone every time we were stationary for more than five seconds, and moaning about his feet being sore tended to cramp my style rather. Also, as I said, a rather threadbare field including mostly what you see every year after year after year.... Still, some entrants are new and exciting, some are old and familiar yet still worth a pic. So if comfortablynumb doesn't mind, I'll add my photos here rather than start a new thread?

Great pictures from both posts, the field might have been thin but still some nice motors, the old boy on the bike really doesn't look like he's enjoying it Out of interest(well to me)the Ukelele Dude is my cousin, they have a big group in Dunstable, Bedfordshire and do a fair bit for good causes www.ukietoones.org.uk/home |

They were playing/supporting the MS Society who were fundraising there. This old boy who suffers from MS and has to use a mobility scooter to get around was running the Speed Trials track, though I didn't hear his time. Apparently he's done Santa Pod, I believe the Nurburgring and the Isle of Man TT in his scoot chair. Took over six hours to do a lap of the TT  including having to pitstop and change batteries. A damn good cause that we gave all our spare change to ... a bit odd as my wife has MS and we have to pay to live with it every goddamned day  but it's a curse word of a disease and well worth supporting the MS Society who do all kinds of good work and support roles. Typical of Third World Britain that a charitable organisation have to run things the Department of Health ought to be doing... and go cap in hand begging at public events to pay for it  |
