A wise ol' car guru once said: "You don't really know how to drive until you have driven an early 1900's car flat out." My dad had a 29 Ford Model A Tudor sedan and damn that thing was scary as hell on curvey dirt roads going 35-50mph. Good times!
Not the best car for for Andrew to sample as a first Vintage drive; he would have been better with a Talbot 105 which has much more modern handling characteristics, and then progress (if that's the right word!) to the Frazer Nash.
What an experience to have. Unfortunately, it seems to have been completely wasted on him. At least he appreciated what other drivers might get out of it.

How lucky this guy is? He gets to drive sooo much different cars from different ages!
Flatout and fearless or tentative and fearful - he was right the environment was not right
A car with a locked rear axle will always drift in the corners. A rally driver would probably feel more at home in this than a circuit driver.

All these very old cars got to be scary to drive
😂 "correcting the slide" how do you correct the slide on a car with no grip?
It is "Donington" btw
The logo at bottom right says 'Goodwood Road & Racing' so probably .. Goodwood ;-)
Sorry .. didn't read the subtitle :-( . Donington it is!
vecchiojohn 🙄 They’ve spelt the circuit name incorrectly.
We've regressed.
Car like this should only be on track with other cars just as old nothing newer and faster
Naff camera angles. Little value here.
Unfortunately the owner of this car obviously chose the wrong person to drive his car, a young joy rider is not the best choice for a car like this.
But he as a young driver has to pay awe to the former driving heroes!
The owner literally said thrash it about
All in all a pointless exercise.
This didn’t age well
