Performance Car Legends - Post-1970 Drivers' Cars


After another early start at Caterham South, a small group of us had a great blat down to the circuit, which was absolutely packed by the time we arrived at around 8.30. After heading to the Chuck Wagon for breakfast we meandered around for a few hours before heading home. A sample of cars on show can be seen below.

Thoroughbred Sunday
The quintessential pre-1980 sports car or motorbike

This was the first time I had been to the Goodwood Breakfast Club. A group of us met in Riverhead at some unearthly hour on a wet Sunday morning and blatted down to Goodwood where a good time was had by all, with an excellent array of cars on show.
