What are these 3 cars?

[Hoofy]

Spotted at Brands Hatch today (testing for this weekend's Mini and Classic car race).



The number 5 car sounded like a car Thor would drive. Looks like there's an Aston Martin badge on the back.

These are stills from videos I took.

Thanks.

Thanks. Maybe. Not entirely sure.

the problem with forumla cars is they were often modified for different types of events or over the seasons, so you could have half a dozen cars and none of them are exactly the same

Ah, good point. It did have a massive carbon exhaust box sticking out the back which I assume wasn't "period".

Hoofy,

I don't suppose you got any footage of a white formula Ford number 75 did you.

My lad had his first ever drive of brands in a FF1600, only his 2nd time out ever in a race car.

We had engine issues sadly, but would love to see any clips.

Agree car number 5 was a monster

Possibly. They were passing too fast for me to see numbers.

Have a look here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-WZhVgLhRs (I don't know if you can see that yet - maybe try at 6pm as that's when it's scheduled to go live)

PS sorry to hear you had engine issues. Must have been fun while it lasted.

[Alwayzsidewayz2]

Thank you so much. We managed one good session in the morning before the engine went a bit flat.
My lad is 16, and just loved the track, so busy he said and challenging.
The minis were spectacular too.
Thank you again for the link

I'm envious of him!

PS did the link work then? And did you spot him?

[Alwayzsidewayz2]

Living the dream, he loves the FF1600 and the test day was really good, lots of other Formula fords running too. So great yardstick
He makes his debut at Donnington on the 23rd, before coming back to brands for the Ford Power event.

Link says private, I guess it will be public at 6

[Alwayzsidewayz2]

Yep you caught him at least once..thank you

Very cool. I'd love to have done that when I was younger!

(Ah, I wondered if you would be able to view it before it was scheduled to be made public.)
