Another fab weekend in the company of excellent machines and people. Not camping at Prescott meant missing out on all of those shenanigans but staying locally, and over the Sunday night as well, meant we could make the best of the Sunday. Even so, I didn't get a chance to walk up the hill to take many action photos up there either and I know I didn't look properly over both the club/non-club areas but snapped stuff during a couple of fairly quick walk-arounds. My plan for next year is to try and make a proper plan to get around and see it all.
I was so happy when I saw that the Napier Bentley was going to be appearing. I don't think he knows (or is perhaps unable) to hold it back.
The startline marshall is clearly fearing for his health as it smokes off the line but in the next photo of the sequence I took his stood back up, looking up at the car with a massive grin on his face ;D
Please, please, please can he bring some friends with next year
Also hats off to the Mk2 Cortina driver who was also giving it some real beans.
Also wonderful to see the Skyline again as I know I didn't properly appreciate just what it was at Mallory.
A couple of MX5s.
I was over-the-moon to see that the J69 Anglia had made it in one piece and had its numbers back on.
Talking Zs
Those who haven't been to Prescott might not appreciate how steep the paddock side of the hill is.
Speedman demonstrates something or other.
Many thanks again Frankenhealey, for the ride.
So much potential.
Fascinating comparison of these two from a similar era but half a world apart.
Nice to chat Roy, and look over the installation
Chilling while waiting in line.
I have been trying to decide if I've overexposed this but reckon it actually was that white. Totally spotless and fantastic to see.
Great crowd for the trophies, and very worthy winners.
Bryn's Volvo just looks so good.
The Datsun showing was really good with sucha great variety of cars.
Not sure I've seen a photo of this RX posted yet? Beautiful and sitting so right.
The chap standing on the right was just about to make a secret signal to his fellow beach volleyball player who's just out of shot.
A few more rolling shots.

All good things must come to an end and off people set.
There you go. I think these two are waving goodbye.
