What made me laugh, was the little Nash trying to keep up with the big boys. My school teacher back in the early 60's had one, even then it made me smile just to see such a bizarre motor car.
MK1 3.4. and 2. 4 Probably my favourite cars of all time. In my life I have owned many cars Rover Mercs XJs I currently run E46, E38, Z3 2.2 and 2.8s, still would love a MK1. E46 in same league.
Love to see a 1940s race. Austin Atlantic Ford Prefect Jaguar xk120 Ford Pilot. Now you might think well the Jaguar would win. But the Atlantic had the 2.7 litre engine that could be set up to Le mans 100M spec. And if you removed the fancy hydraulics it would definitely be competitive! Be fun to see.

i never realized how big the Zephyr was compared to a Jaguar MkI
Stick your F1 and touring cars.
This is real balls out racing. Love it.

Who transforms these cars into such racing machines?

Just goes to show how, truly, crap F1 is these days. Exciting racing from the old school.
The little red A40 surprised me indeed, very competitive – amazing !
Why does anyone still watch modern car racing when this is at hand?
Number 20 nods over to number 1 at the starting line and asks "Pardon me … do you have any Grey Poupon?"

When the chauffeur tells his employer he's going to take the Mark-VII for the day out to get it serviced.
Why are there so few Triumph TR-4s racing at Goodwood? TRs, MGs, Spitfires, 1960s small sports cars, etc.
The Nash had an english motor that was in many british cars. sold through rambler, mayflower, AMC,
This is better than F1
Thse cars look like they are enjoying it

The bridal car (#29) did extremely well considering it had wedding bookings before the race.
