The Tony Dron Memorial Trophy For MRL Historic Touring Cars | The Classic 2022

Stunning scenes. A race for the period that touring cars raced in the British and European Car Championships, between 1966 and 1990, and a U2TC class (Pre '66).
What. A. Line-up.

Superb. Absolutely superb. I love to see racing cars doing what they were built to do and not languishing in some museum

[@veryrare7647]

2/3 skylines were replicas according to the announcing

[@andrewdrabble8939]

@@veryrare7647 true but you know what I mean

[@veryrare7647]

would love if more time was spent highlighting the huge depth of the field! so many cool cars and drivers were left out to focus repeatedly on the leaders (two of which were replicas anyway)

[@paolod853]

I love that cortina so much

[@darrenbrailsford6809]

I think the capris did so well to keep up with the much newer Nissan skylines. Just shows how fast those RS3100’s are. I was there to watch that race and for me the Capri was the moral victor as it was a lot older.

[@gavinivers8941]

The Nissan Skylines ran in WINFIELD colours in Australia.

What the hell? This has been on yootoob for a year and it hasn't been suggested, I'm thoroughly shocked.

[@gothicpagan.666]

Not sure which was more interesting, the racing or the commentary?

[@thefastandthedead1769]

All came down to a throttle cable!

[@i_w_sto_koni_nie_dogoni]

I knew it was someting simple as Ric Wood got the car going again fairly quick after looking under the bonnet (something the commentators have somehow failed to notice)

[@plantfeeder6677]

All the fast Cossies!😣😡
That was a rookie move by that white Sierra at the start. Not even worth watching the race now. Just a no competition parade with what's left only hoping for mechanical failure on the leader's part.

Golden 1966 - 1989 👍👍👍
Stop Modern 1990👎👎👎

[@davos4wdadventures]

The texaco cars had there Bathurst win taken away for cheating.. fuel 120 octane isn't playing by the rules 🇭🇲👍

[@Demun1649]

They aren't CLASSICS if they are Japanese.

[@gothicpagan.666]

Same could be said for others also, not classic just simply old.

[@flyingfox2728]

Skylines in Australia weren't under the Peter Jackson livery as stated they were Winfield livery
