  • Today's video offers a lot of exciting action from the 2022 VSCC Loton Park meeting, where talented drivers took to the narrow course in their glorious pre war racing cars.
    You name it - it was there! Some of the rarest cars being thrashed up the hill include a Bugatti Type 51, ERA, several Lagondas and Bentleys and a gorgeous MG hillclimb car, with twin tyres at the back.
    There really were some fantastic sounding cars, from four cylinders to straight sixes to eight cylinder cars so make sure to turn up those speakers to appreciate the thunderous roar of these brilliant old racing cars.
    Of course there was the usual huge attendance of Riley specials, Austin Sevens, Frazer Nashes and other curious specials that can always be found at any VSCC event.
    In addition, there were a few Edwardian cars and Aero engined cars that too make for entertaining viewing.
    There were also some famous names racing up the hill including Patrick Blakeny-Edwards in his amazing fast Frazer Nash and Julian Grimwade in his iconic Frazer Nash 'Norris Special', both drivers drifting their way up the Loton Park Hillclimb, desperatley trying to shave a few tenths of their previous times
    In this video there is something for everyone, I will be walking around the paddock, looking at some vintage cars parked up and of course providing coverage of all the action on the course for your enjoyment!

    Brilliant coverage of this event. Sights and sounds. Your knowledge and enthusiasm are an inspiration! I suspect 1 or 2 of those Frazer Nashes may also have AC engines?

    The Austin 7 Specail ar 21:00 has an off-set differential to the LHS, with an engine angled to point to the dif. This enables the driver to sit lower and have the prop shaft alongside them, then the rear axle to also sit lower in the chassis. It would be worth asking to see the bonnet off. Would make great content.

      That's the Cognac, 2 litre straight six and probably my favourite soundtrack! It also appears in a video I did of the VSCC meeting at Prescott, and a best car sounds compilation (found on channel homepage!)

    hi @carTraction, My dad owns the black supercharged riley that you featured at @2:25. he will be really happy that you featured him in this as this is his project him and his dad has been doing for 30 years now.
    the car next to it had my Austin 7 special (red single seater) unfortunately we blew the engine off of it in the afternoon.
    however we will be back for the whole season this year from curbrough onwards, please feel free to reachout and we can give you a full tour of the riley and the NEW austin 7 special that we are currently building :)

    I am going ot have to see if they have anything like this here in the States. I am in the process of building a 1928 Morgan Aero from scratch. A replica of the RIP racer with the wooden slats and aircraft fabric. I have an Onan/Tiger moth opposed twin engine coupled to an MGB transmission then on to a Honda Gold wing shaft drive wheel as the driving wheel. Thank you for the video

    The "Pic Pic" appears to have a Curtiss OX-5 engine from a JN-4 Jenny. Only 90 HP, but tons of torque.

  • @frankmcgorman962

    Like you said...who needs high revs when you have all the torque. Some of those engines just sound like they're all pure grunt.

      I showed most of the cars in the paddock walkaround, but for the runs up the hill I try to use the best footage so the video isn't hours long!
