    I thoroughly enjoy the Goodwood races, but wish the Mini's had their own series to compete in. They're amazingly competitive, but just seem to get squashed by the bigger cars. Carry on, I'll be watching and enjoying either way 😁

      @fugawiaus 4 місяці тому +9

      You know the rovers are v8s don’t you.
      Also e types, cobras and gtos are 50s-60s tech. Rubbish handling compared to the much wider and more powerful 70s mustangs and Cameros.
      Admittedly I don’t get why they are in this category.
      The minis beat the v8 falcons at Bathurst in the day but they were all available here in Australia.

      In the 60's Dan Gurney shipped a stock Chevy Impala over here, competed and qualified on pole in the British Touring cars. The Impala had a full interior such was it's advantage in power even against MK2 Jags and the like.
      Sadly the muscle cars of this era (70s) were somewhat stifled by new, over zealous emissions regulations in the US and aren't quite as potent.
      I used to look down my nose at big, simple American stuff but as I've gotten older and better informed I realise they have their strengths and charm.

      The race is for cars raced in the ‘70s and ‘80s British Touring car championship. So, if it raced it is allowed. However, racers being racers, if they want to win a cup they buy a yank tank. The Rovers and Capris have been eclipsed now, it is a bit of a shame. When it rains it’s a different story though…

    This definitely isn't fair racing. I remember in the 1960s when the 7 litre Ford Galaxys started we tried to get them banned and I'm still of the same opinion. Cars that fast and powerful are always going to win however skillful the other drivers are, as this race once again proved.
