Rover SD1 at Goodwood: Time For Tea?

A Rover V8 and oversteer; make Monday afternoon pass a little quicker with this onboard!

The Gerry Marshall Trophy at the Goodwood Members' Meeting recently was a must-see for all fans of historic cars. Capris, Escorts, GTVs, Minis, Mustangs - all sorts. Every car was battling hard for every position and the racing was superb. Here we have a snippet of onboard from the victorious Rover SD1, prepared by JD Classics. Why feature a Members' Meeting video now? Because it was only published last week. Better late than never and all that.

Seeing a cage and race equipment in a very brown Rover interior looks strange. But not half as strange as hearing a raucous V8 amongst the velour and old vents.

The vid shows both Chris Ward and Andrew Smith driving. We've said it before, we'll probably say it again, but motorsport was a better spectacle with less grip. Slithering and sliding its way round, the SD1 is a great watch. Top work all round!

Enjoy.
