EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Chris McEvoy takes us back in time to the thrilling era of British and European Touring Car Championships. The image showcases the iconic CM34 3505 Ford Lotus Cortina, driven by Mike Gardiner and Josh Cook, as they navigate the historic Grand Prix Circuit at Silverstone. The race is part of the Historic Touring Car Challenge (HTCC) combined with the Tony Dron Trophy for Touring Cars and U2TC for Pre-66 under 2-litre Touring Cars. These competitions bring together a grid of classic racing cars that competed from the late 1960s to the 1980s, evoking nostalgia for motorsport enthusiasts. In this live-action shot, we witness a pit stop being mandated but optional for a second driver. The atmosphere is electric as these heritage vehicles showcase their performance on track. The sight of these fast-paced GT cars and saloon cars competing side by side creates an unforgettable spectacle. McEvoy's panned shot perfectly captures the essence of circuit racing, showcasing both speed and precision. Against a backdrop of Northamptonshire's picturesque countryside, this classic event combines entertainment with competition in an outdoor setting. This print is not just about capturing motorcars; it encapsulates a sense of heritage and revival within motor racing culture. It serves as a reminder that even decades later, these retro machines continue to captivate audiences with their timeless appeal.
