Think next to Brands, Cadwell has to be one of my favourite circuits, here are a few from the CSCC meet last Sunday - please feel free to comment etc.

Looks like a Lancia?

Yup - Lancia Monte Carlo. They were available from the late 70's to early 80's.
Interesting car - was it mid engined, or is that my memory playing tricks ?
Sadly Lancia pulled out of the UK due to the Beta and it's terminal rust problems.

It is indeed a Lancia, bit of a confused car, not sure if it wants to be a sports car or a flatbed pick up - quick for it's age though

Rust problems caused by poor quality Russian steel got as part of an exchange deal by the italian government and Fiat / Lada and others.

Nice pics by the way
 
Loving the 'grassy knoll' shot (no pun intended)
....seems to be grabbing a few zzzz's ?

nice selection :cool:
 
All great shots, its such a nice circuit.

Where was No 1 taken?? Hairpin/Barn??

Also, are you there this weekend for superkarts?

Thanks - I was stood at Barn looking up to the exit of hairpin - had to time it just right so the porta loo was blocked out. had to be careful in the afternoon as one of the marshals kindly pointed out a new wasp nest actually in the armco.

Not there this weekend sorry, will be there for the CSCC again next Sunday though.

Great shots, wish I'd made it. Looks like there was a nice range of machinery, #1 is definitely my favourite it's not a angle seen that often (mainly because us as spectators can't get there!).

I'm looking forward to the CSCC this weekend though. Hope to see some great shots from you again, if I had to give some crit I'd recommend going round the first half of the circuit (i.e. not Hall Bends, Mountain etc) there's some cracking angles around there and everyone ignores it!
