In this exhilarating panned shot captured by Chris McEvoy of CJM Photography, we are transported to the heart-pounding world of motorsport at Silverstone Grand Prix Motor Circuit in Towcester, Northamptonshire, England. The print showcases a gripping moment from the HRDC 'Gerry Marshall' Trophy Series race held in October 2022. The image features over 30 iconic pre-1980's Touring Cars lined up on the grid for a forty-five-minute two-driver race. Among them is David Irwin behind the wheel of his powerful Alfa Romeo 2000 GTV, ready to unleash its raw speed and agility on the circuit. The atmosphere is electric as drivers prepare themselves for an intense battle across four classes divided by drum-braked and engine capacity categories. As spectators cheer from the sidelines, these historic racing machines roar into action with their distinctive growls reverberating through every corner of the track. The competition is fierce as skilled drivers navigate hairpin turns and straightaways with precision and determination. Amidst all this excitement, pit stops become crucial moments where strategy meets split-second decision-making. It's a true test of teamwork as two drivers work seamlessly together to maximize performance while ensuring flawless transitions during driver changes. This photograph not only captures the essence of high-speed circuit racing but also pays homage to classic saloon cars that have left an indelible mark on motor racing history. With each passing lap, these timeless vehicles showcase their enduring power and beauty against a backdrop of breathtaking English countryside. Chris McEvoy's lens has frozen this unforgettable moment in time – April 2023 issue of Autosport magazine will feature this incredible image alongside other highlights from Motor Racing Legends' Silverstone GP event. So brace yourself for an adrenaline-fueled journey into the world of motorsport, where speed, competition, and entertainment collide in a symphony of roaring engines and screeching tires.
