EDITORS COMMENTS
This thrilling photo captures the intensity of the HRDC 'Gerry Marshall' Trophy Series race at the prestigious Silverstone Grand Prix Motor Circuit in Towcester, Northamptonshire, England, October 2022. With over 30 historic touring cars on the grid, this forty-five minute two-driver race was split into four classes: Drum Braked, Group 1 Touring Cars (up to 1400cc), Group 1½ Touring Cars (1401cc-1600cc), and a Willhire Class for Invited Production Touring Cars. In the midst of the action, we find Peter Smith and Andy Pardoe in their Ford Escort RS2000 Mk2, a formidable contender in the Group 1 Touring Cars category. The iconic blue and yellow liveried car, adorned with the number 3890, is a testament to the rich history of tin top racing. The race, featuring a mix of pre-1980's GT cars, saloon cars, and racing circuit entertainment, was a true celebration of motor racing's past. The grid was filled with a diverse range of vehicles, from the powerful and agile Ford Escort RS2000 Mk2 to the classic Austin A30 and Mini Cooper S. As the race progressed, the drivers pushed their cars to the limit, showcasing their skill and determination on the track. In this moment, Andy Pardoe expertly navigates the winding Silverstone circuit, preparing for a pit stop while Peter Smith readies for his stint behind the wheel. The energy and excitement are palpable, as the drivers and their teams work together to secure the best possible finish. This image, captured by CJM Photography during the Motor Racing Legends Silverstone GP event on the 22nd and 23rd of April 2023, encapsulates the essence of competition, entertainment, and the enduring spirit of motor racing.
