Hi and a warm welcome to my classic and vintage car channel. This channel started out as a platform to share my in car racing films with Friends and Family but as with so many things it has developed as other enthusiasts have subscribed.
But recently I have decided to share the films my dad made of racing in the 1960's and 1970's typically vintage cars but also some period cars. These films were originally filmed with a (then) state of the Art Bolex 16mm camera and unusually COLOUR (color) film and the Company Roscoe films was formed. There are lots more to be converted to digital so PLEASE SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss out. These films are subject to copyright.

This is my Triumph TR3a racing at Loton Park Hillclimb in the English summer. A hint of damp to drying track for practice before a full rain storm for the timed run. But still came away with a win on handicap and for the event class.

Triumph TR3a 1959 Sprint Racing Then and Now :- from 1st Event 2017 to Class Record 2022
มุมมอง 46810 หลายเดือนก่อน
Hi all. Now the 2023 season is over, I thought that I would look back at my first ever event at Curborough in 2017 when I first owned this wonderful 1959 TR3a. Then it was suggested that I compare it to my 2022 run when I broke the club championship class 2b record. So this is what I have done - you will have to forgive the 2017 video quality, it was a cheap camera. So hopefully you will see th...

This was my first ever event at Harewood Hill Climb 1st Practice. Initially I didn't notice the smoke from the bonnet Louvres ( a good investment !!) as I was watching the people and the manoeuvring Audi. Then saw the smoke and orange flames through the louvres and the mild concern started. I know you shouldn't really open the bonnet in these circumstances, but I could see the fire was not big ...

Nice to see I'm not alone trying to run out of a small garage ! Can I ask what your tow car is? I'm having to change car and struggling to find something suitable.
@@podd372 hi it’s the white one in the video - I’m lucky to have picked up a really cheap Audi a5 TDI 170 Quattro it’s 14 years old and about 140,000 miles (a bit battered now sadly from works car parks 😤) but it tows really well it’s a 5 door hatch Back so practical too.
Have a great weekend in Yorkshire!
@@AnagramAutoclassics cheers 👍 it even stayed dry !!
@@HamishRacing Bonus! I've enjoyed Harewood over many years - they've got a great team of marshals with a wicked sense of humour 😉
What seats are those , not seen anything like that with harness slots ?
@@MGracer87 hi they are old version by these people they run classic cars themselves. www.ridgardseats.co.uk
@@HamishRacing thanks they look comfortable
Lovely set up. Have fun!
@@cheftush thanks chef and have fun on your 6 pack road trip.
Wishing car 41 a safe journey and best of luck tomorrow. From car 67. youtube.com/@supermattronic
A fast MR2 driver 👍👍got any tips ?
Don’t put it on its roof at the first corner 😜
Ha ha we are both ok on that front ………. No roofs 🤣🤣🤣
And what alovely noise... K
love the spare coil. Mortsky said they never fail, see last video. They do. All the best and good luck. Keith
Thanks
Game on, see you there! ;)
Looking forward to coming at least 2nd in class then 😮
You're better in the wet than me!@@HamishRacing
Very nice driving with an angry sounding engine.
Glorious noise!
Awesome!
Well done congratulations
@@petermolesworth7654 Thanks Peter.
Smooth driving, really felt the flow of that run. Motor pcks up well, even after a tyre squeal incident. Thanks again All the best. Would rather have the 3a than the Ferrari.A tribal thing I suppose . Keith
@@user-hk5zb4oi7i thanks Keith - yes the revs pick up well.
Great driving! Nice save. Nice down shifting. Are you still running the 89mm engine? I see the tach needle bouncing, original cable driven. Cheers.
@@davehogye576 such a compliment from a real race driver 👍 Yes 89mm and standard crank and cable tacho
@@HamishRacing Great! My car has a .010"&.010" under race prepared stock crank, Carrillo rods and 87mm factory Hepolite big bore kit. The pistons were in the car when I found it in '08, after sitting for 33 years. Cable driven factory tach as well. You are performing extremely well with your TR. Keep the videos coming.
Man that thing pulls up short! Awesome brakes on the beast to go with a fantastic sound! The runs always get my heart beating fast as I try to anticipate the braking, gear changes and turn-in. That OD not being limited to just 3rd and 4th certainly helps a lot just to stretch her legs a touch when needed. Going to have to look up how to take that limitation off when I get the 2500S back on the road! ...and don't worry mate - you already had the class record and STILL put in a 66 after the fluff with the brakes on that corner, so I'd still be happy with the overall result. And the Ferrari? Huh! He'll be more worried about making a mistake and scratching the paintwork! I remember one of the previous outings at that track where it was rather damp and at least one expensive vehicle went off....but the TR3A still did some great times.
@@KiwiStag74 Always love you comments and insights. Thank you. Yes the steering box and std brakes are good. Sadly one Ferrari didn’t make it home unscathed ☹️but great that some owners use them in anger as Enzo intended. OD in 2nd can be a bit brutal!!
That overdrive is awesome on a hill climb, its on 3rd and 4th?
@@jameseastwood4984 hi James it’s an early TR6 box with synchro on all gears. It has a 22% A type overdrive on 2nd, 3rd and 4th. Uprated pressures so it changes a bit quicker. Full throttle changes without lifting. 😁
Pulls incredibly up the long hill. What did the missfire you gad at Shelsley end up being?
@@jameseastwood4984 James at Shelsley I changed the plugs and the first run at loton on the 13th the day before this video cleared itself. I think it’s gets sooted up whilst we wait for the runs. I just give it a good revving to help keep it clear.
The record came with the smooth driving, but shows how easy it is to loose fractions when trying to push limits.
@@robertdavies9594 yeah so true. Trying too hard can make it more exciting but slower 🤔🙄🤣
Ah the sweetest man made sound hits my screen again. Loton fairly local to me so will have to get over hopefully see the TR3 (and yourself of course ) in person. Ferrari owners may have been there ( think I saw a 348 a 308 and 355? Amongst the modern ones) but that singing 4 pot Infront of you takes some beating 👍..
10/10! Thank you.
Hi Hamish. Do you use same wheels and tyres for wet weather and congratulations fine effort..
@@petermolesworth7654 Hi Peter, yes I use the same tyres wet or dry. They are road legal but certainly biased to dry conditions.
Trying out the different gears made a big difference to your last timed run. Very smooth driving, throttle and gear changing. Nice one
What ever happened to autocross?
Mate! Your confidence level between this run and the ones of last year even (let alone two years ago) has come on in spades! Great to see your progress (and not meaning to sound condescending in the slightest there - I'm absolutely rapt for ya!) Me? I reckon I'd have abandoned the run when she was really wet and just had some fun drifting and hanging it out through corners while waiting for the rain to clear....although if the time for the win was an aggregate, then I can see why you didn't....and I would have been the same. The little car sounds epic as usual. although that miss was a bit frustrating I bet. Love the sound of that wee engine! I brought my Stag down on a hundred mile trip to see my mother for her birthday and had an absolute ball on the winding hills that make up half the journey, but my pace was nothing like yours and I got a kick out of seeing the TR hurtling around similarly flat or negatively cambered corners much quicker than I could get the Stag to do. Looking forward to the next one! All the best.
@@KiwiStag74 Thanks Lance. It’s a good strong engine and some sticky road tyres. Still trying different approaches with what gears are right for which part of the track given the conditions on the day. Won the club handicap with the 2nd run and the event class 1st with the 4th ! Go figure. The old steering box still feels good.👍
Going very well. Did you manage to find solve the missfire?
@@jameseastwood4984 I think it’s just webers and modern fuels. I find the floats and needle valves stick a bit first thing. The car had been sat in the paddock overnight.
Nice use of that 6sp transmission 😉🙂 Allways love the variety of machinery at hill climbs and the regs that allow just the right amount of modifications for true classic cars without them becoming 100k+ thinly disguised racers. For that we have mod sport or even sports libra for the truly mad or Nick Mann😂😂😂 Legend
That transporter at the end. At 40mph of course it's safe. You wouldn't in those days get vosa visiting a paddock area to check the weight capacity of a tail lift. Simpler better days.
Most of the competitors were youngsters back then, but then the cars were the equivalent of eighties and nineties cars today. Loved it, thankyou.
Hi Hamish just bought a TR3A Rally Car,it has been used extensively in Targa Tasmania. I am going to hillclimb it may I ask what diff ratio you use. Cheers Peter Molesworth
@@petermolesworth7654 Hi are you based in Australia? If in uk there is good info here www.tr-register.co.uk/motorsport I use a 4:1 diff cuts top speed a little bit better acceleration from start and out of slow corners.
@@HamishRacing Thankyou
@@HamishRacing Yes in Bundanoon NSW 2578
Young Jim Clark on his way to become the greatest ever
This was fantastic. Who was Mike Park. Must’ve been quite a driver. He could handle that black 250 gto in the wet. If only they knew what that car would be worth today
I'm loving these movies. Cheers from the States.
Thanks. There are more of my dads period films on my channel check them out. Nice to get you comment on Father’s Day here in England 👍😁
@@HamishRacing Yes I subscribed. I stumbled on your channel from Shed Racing that was recommended by the guys over at ColdWarMotors. Happy Father's Day! I have a friend with 3 Galaxies, racing a big heavy tub against cars 1/3rd their weight is a total piss. The commentary has me in stitches. Thank you for sharing these!
Your TR really moves. I hope you found out the cause of the missfire.
Thank you James. I think it was a lack of pre-event practice to properly set up the webers as I changed the plugs and re-balanced the carbs which helped a bit.
Wonderful! The Esses were always a scary for me in my Imp..Never was there a time when it was dry there either..Hence some 45 secs run in the 1070 cc Imp in road going modified.
David, we have had too many wet events ! But it was a good day, even if too many single seaters over cooked it trying to win during practice ! Love the imp a great rear engined car that can be made to fly….
why we mostly hear wind at speed, is ur mg electric 😂
Bobby it’s a Triumph mate- but I’ll let you off. Wind noise is from the side camera so you can see what it would be like if you were a passenger.
Last gear shifting without moving gear stick???
Thanks for your interest. It’s magic 😱 no really I have overdrive which is electrically operated via a switch on the dash which I can operate with right hand on the wheel. I have a bad habit of leaving my hand on the gear lever 🙄
Shy on the esses to begin is way better than to brave and an early bath. So glad that I am subscribed, keep doing it . Big thank you!
I loved every second! Less snuffley snuffle on the overrun this season? Or just less overrun on the hill? Whatever, an uplifting moment in a dull cold day in the far north of Scotland. Thank you.
Thanks Patch, my first run (last on the video) it was misfiring badly. But cleared- I still changed the plugs though. Still not happy with the webers as I had to re-balance them on the day too.
Nice driving. Nice event. Cheers.
1st - That was quick Dave. Thanks
Saw a mk 2 Lotus Cortina. A little late for 1963. Fun video though
A terrific drive Hamish, you and the TR as one.
Cheers John it was a good days racing
@@HamishRacing I saw the short of you on Shelsley and can't wait to see the full video. Great commitment going into Kennel (I believe it is) you didn't lift, really brave.
That sounds awesome!
Thanks Chef. It’s flat out in 3rd on a steep hill with a full throttle OD change to 3rd od as I pass the camera.
good memories...
This is a wonderful roadster-ride through the English countryside. I have my TR3 in pieces restoring it, have not been on a Blue-ridge Parkway drive in many years, this virtual ride along reminds me of those past drives. Now looking forward to completing the restoration to enjoy a drive like this again. Loved it! Thanks!
Thank you for your kind words. I hope you enjoy your car soon.
