CM34 3709 Alasdair Coates and Alexander Dawson push their Ford Escort Mk1 RS2000 to the limit during a thrilling race at the HRDC 'Gerry Marshall' Trophy Series. With over 30 cars on the grid, this action-packed event took place at the iconic Silverstone Grand Prix Motor Circuit in Towcester, Northamptonshire, England in October 2022.
The forty-five-minute two-driver race featured pre-1980's Touring Cars split into four classes, including one for Drum Braked vehicles and three categorized by engine capacity. Additionally, there was a Willhire class for Invited Production Touring Cars that added an extra level of excitement to the competition.
As rain poured down on the circuit, creating challenging conditions for all participants, Coates and Dawson skillfully maneuvered through spray-filled corners with precision and determination. The wet race intensified both driver skill and vehicle performance as they battled against each other and nature's elements.
The historic racing atmosphere was palpable as these GT cars roared around the track, showcasing their power and agility. Pit stops became crucial moments for strategy adjustments while maintaining speed amidst fierce rivalries among drivers.
Captured by Chris McEvoy from CJM Photography in April 2023 issue of Autosport magazine, this print encapsulates the essence of motorsport: adrenaline-fueled action combined with high-speed drama. It serves as a testament to the passion shared by competitors who dedicate themselves to preserving classic racing heritage.
