This is page 1 of an Autocar road test from 1952. The car shown in Ray's post is a later model but at least this shows what they were called back in the day. Hardly the fastest thing on the road - standing quarter mile in 23.2sec

Regarding the Racing Car Show - in 1983 I lived in Sinclair Rd, right behind London Olympia. In fact I walked past the place almost daily and imagined days gone by of racing car shows that I'd been reading about since the 60s.

Ken, 1973 would have been a great year to be there too - plenty of options for F2/F3/Atlantic and Group 6 on top of F1, maybe some Can-Am and Indy McLarens and a ton of Formula Fords.

Would one day be enough?

"in 1983 I lived in Sinclair Rd, right behind London Olympia"

Small world. In the mid 70's I had some very good friends in Sinclair Road and I spent quite a lot of time there.

Michael,
I have a rather long story on my night at the Olympia Exhibition Hall, not far from Earls Court.
I will email you if you are interested ?

2009 - Goodwood - pocket camera only for this meeting and only about 3/4 of the day.

As I'm moving through some sections alphabetically, there will be bunches of the same make. So, more Ferraris.
2009

Most car hire companies offer Toyotas, Mitsubishis, Nissans etc., but at Maranello…

As an aside, a visit to Maranello is well worthwhile, as although it is all about Ferrari, the Museo Ferrari is just one place worth visiting, just wandering around is very enjoyable.
