A drizzly Monday at the Motor Circuit in mid-ish August and the paddocks are full of coughing spluttering gargling big-banger historic racers – it must be another Revival test day…

With less than three weeks to go until Revival, today’s slithery early simulation of the autumnal grey will no doubt have preparers and competitors on edge as they turn a tentative right foot to the loud pedal on the greasy Goodwood tarmac. What better cars to test one’s nerve than the ferocious T70s of the Whitson or the drop-dead gorgeous 250s of the Kinrara? As ever our crack snapper is on hand bringing us on and off-track testing scenes with all this and more, as racers (including our own track tester Andrew Jordan) bone up ready for action in September. We really can’t wait…
