The Combe GTs is becoming a Radical stylefest with a couple of saloons thrown in for good measure. The Orange Radical dropped to almost last place after a naff start but was in the lead and away within a couple of laps. The mighty M6 has proved unreliable and ended the race early as it lost it, spun to the infield and blew up, no really we were watching from Quarry when it left in a cloud of tyre smoke and a fireball appeared over the top of it. Luckily I think it was only an oil line or similar that broke and was soon extinguished. The little X1/9 bumbled round at the back. Another refreshment stop before the last races. ;D

The last two races were for Formula Ford and German saloons and sportscars. We missed all the FF action while chatting in the paddock, the race stopped early for a chap who landed upside down. The other race we watched from the car before heading home. Battling hard till the end And that was it, for once I came away from an event this year with a tan. There was the same again plus a few more races today, but the lawn isn't going to cut itself! The rest of the photos can be found here

Shame the big name cars didn't show. Looks like a good time was had anyway. Carlton still wearing its Goodwood oval sticker from a couple of weeks ago

I think some of the cars were at Silverstone for the Classic. Shame really as they had three races for them over the weekend.

Brilliant photos and thundersaloons and mod prod cars are my favorite race cars Hopefully the blue Monza in the pictures below will be finished for next year and be able to join the party in later life it looked like this It looks a lot different now but has been 3 years so far in restoration (not allowed to post pics of what it looks like now - hoping the owner will do a (re)build thread on here one day

That Monza looks means. This series has so much potential, it'll be good to see another round with more cars out.

Excellent pics Is the Carlton not John Cleland's old ThunderSaloon from 1987-ish?

Cleland Vince Woodman raced it in the late 80s then it was bought and raced by Peter Stevens in the 90s. There's some really good information about it here
