Capturing the Thrills of Historic Touring Car Racing at Donington Park". This print by Chris McEvoy from CJM Photography transports us to the heart of the action-packed HRDC Gerry Marshall Trophy Series race at Donington Historic Festival 2023. The image showcases an exhilarating moment as Mark Thomas skillfully maneuvers his Ford Capri 3 litre S through a grid teeming with over 30 pre-1980's Touring Cars. The atmosphere is electric as these iconic GT and saloon cars, divided into four classes based on engine capacity and braking systems, compete fiercely for victory. The roar of engines fills the air, echoing off the historic circuit walls in Castle Donington, Derbyshire. Donning their racing suits and helmets, two drivers per car showcase their skills during this intense forty-five-minute battle. Pit stops add another layer of excitement as teams work swiftly to refuel and make any necessary adjustments before sending their drivers back onto the track. As spectators cheer from grandstands lining the circuit, it becomes evident that this event is not just about speed; it's a celebration of motor sport heritage. Invited Production Touring Cars join in a special Willhire class, adding diversity to an already thrilling spectacle. Chris McEvoy's expertly captured photograph encapsulates both the adrenaline-fueled competition and nostalgic charm that define historic racing events like this one. It serves as a testament to the enduring passion for motorsport in England while offering viewers a glimpse into an unforgettable day at Donington Park.
