When it comes to classic racing cars, we can’t really help ourselves. That’s why we've popped to the Silverstone Classic to have a wander around and scope out the action.

After seeing what was on offer we had to put together this gorgeous gallery of what's going down in the busiest pitland in historic racing. A Lola T70 MkIIIB looks purposeful awaiting its stint, Ford GT40s slumber in the garages and the Lightweight E-Types look slight yet muscular in the summer sun. The reflections in the garage floor afford the otherwise brutal looking blue Ford Falcon an elegance.
You've got to love these artsy atmospheric shots. It's a nice detailed contrast to the full tilt track action where we can appreciate how stunning these period machines really are.
