EDITORS COMMENTS
In this thrilling print from the Motor Racing Legends event at Silverstone Grand Prix Motor Circuit in Towcester, Northamptonshire, England, October 2022, we find ourselves in the midst of the HRDC 'Gerry Marshall' Trophy Series race. Forty-five minutes of non-stop action awaited the thirty-plus cars on the grid, split into four classes: Drum Braked, Group 1 Touring Cars, Group 1½ Touring Cars, and a Willhire Class for Invited Production Touring Cars. Among the sea of racing machines, the Ford Escort RS2000 Mk2 driven by Peter Smith and Andy Pardoe stands out. The iconic blue and yellow liveried car, a favorite among tin-top fans, is a force to be reckoned with. The rain-soaked circuit adds an extra layer of excitement to the race, with spray flying as the GT cars battle it out on track. The forty-five minute race is a two-driver event, and the tension is palpable as teams strategize pit stops and driver swaps. In the background, mechanics work tirelessly to ensure their cars are in top shape for the next stint. The roar of the engines and the screech of tires on wet asphalt fill the air, creating an electric atmosphere that only motor racing can provide. This photo captures the essence of competition, entertainment, and the sheer joy of motor sport. The HRDC 'Gerry Marshall' Trophy Series at Silverstone Grand Prix Motor Circuit is a testament to the enduring legacy of Group 1 Touring Cars and the thrill of tin-top racing.
