New subscriber here my friend!! Super awesome video and even cooler cars. I am starting a RUclips channel with the building a 1928 Morgan/MG special. Instead of using a GN rear (none available in the US.) I am using an MG rear differential and beautiful spoked wire wheels. I am using an experimental aircraft opposed twin as the power plant possibly with a turbo.. I am setting up a machine shop and a forge in order to cast the aluminum adapter to link the motor and a 4 speed manual MG transmission. I am going to be able to cast any parts and then turn them down on the lathe or the mill. Depending on how the project turns out I may start building turn key replicas here in the States as well as kits. They will essentially be WWI airplanes without a prop or wings. I am going to use aircraft ceconite and spray it with plasticizer. It will be a wood over metal frame similar to both the Morgan and the Pembleton. I hope to start as soon as I am back on my feet from getting run over while riding my 1957 Harley Panhead...Probably by the end of the summer.
@@redfox111 Sure thing !! I think every real man loves these cars and to actually have someone like you be at these events and bring the action to us across the pond is awesome. It definitely gives me inspiration to work on my Morgan/MG special.
I love watching old cars and motor bike racing the range of different vehicles is incredible but the the strangest thing seeing one of my Volvo Amazons I built in 1993 is still about and it’s next to the Saab and silver alvis I can see the turquoise paint reflection of it and it’s exactly how I built it. Thank you the new owner!! ie it was called the happy car…
Did you find out any information on that 91 car with the really awesome mechanicals? Looks recently restored however I have never seen that car in any of the races. Really exciting to see the technology involved!!! Thank you so much for bringing this to those of us across the pond....
It's the "Freikaiserwagen", originally built as a sprint and hill climb special in 1936 by David Fry & Dick Caeser, with Dick's cousin Joe Fry driving. It had a GN chassis, Morgan suspension and an Anzani V-twin engine, and subsequently modified with a Blackburne 1100c engine running on alcohol with a supercharger. Development was halted by the war, then it was upgraded again, but Joe Fry crashed fatally in 1950 and the project was abandoned. The car was repaired and used sporadically since the 1960s, but it has now been restored to compete in vintage events.
@@RoyCousins Wow! Thank you Roy!!! That was exactly the information I was looking for. I am a complete car nerd...especially when it comes to pre war cars and cars that have been cobbled together for a certain purpose. That thing is beautiful!! I believe I can see how they did the clutch assembly and I am going to to my 1928 with an opposed twin with a supercharger from an experimental airplane.. Super cool my friend. Thanks again.
Wonderful content utterly ruined by appalling filming technique, wandering around aimlessly spraying everything with your phone doesn't cut the mustard.
yiks! all then chains right under the fun maker.
😂😂
Love the paddock pictures. Thanks for posting.
Glad you like them!

Who cares ?
@@tonywright8294 Nobody cares about any opinion you might have and even less about you.
Thanks bud👍

@@tonywright8294Well you obviously do. Why else waste time venting your misery over someone with plans and enthusiasm.

Absolutely incredible. Thanks for posting this video. Had a 1951 Morris Minor during my college years.
@@drbichat5229 thanks 👍
12:14 The chain drive transmission on #90 looks like a reall ball-tearer!
@@helixworld I prefer to keep mine 😂

Hello. What is it this black vertical plate than there is on the front of certain cars ???
timing beam splitter
@@timreynolds4784 Thank you very much.
A little less speed on the badges please .... in order to see what car it is. Lovely video, thank you.
@@user-cc1mf1dz2y ✅
What purpose has the vertical black knife in front of every car? Btw.: Nice Video!
@@kingearl2596 timing beam splitter ⏰
@@redfox111 Oh - thank you. It's very strange and very British, I like it.
7:37 It looks like a GN, with a very interesting ohc V-twin engine. Is it a one-off?
1922 GN Vitesse with a GN-designed 1086cc 90° V-Twin OHC 35 bhp engine. Around 35 Vitesse models were built.
@@RoyCousins Thank you. I see this is an original car and was auctioned by Bonhams recently
A quoi sert la plaque verticale , fixée a l'avant de chaque vehicule en competition ?? ( a traduire ) ..... Merci
Timing beam. Splitter. ⏰⏰⏰
What, no Reliant Robins took part?!
Not that weekend 🚗😂
after watching the news (Trump) I am glad for some sanity,
Trump-The Greatest (president) Of All Time!!🥰
Who parked his red nonsense in front of a honourable Bentley?
What about the JAG with the high performance hubcaps and bumper stickers,real racy Rachel
Dozens of projects? LIAR!!!
If you are NOT narrating then what you are showing is largely meaningless.
If you know what you're looking at, there is a lot of meaning.
