Chrome and speed

The chrome grill of an MG.

I was rather taken with this Maserati, although I realised afterwards that the dashboard could have done with a good clean!

I liked the simplicity and elegance of the boot catch on the Maserati

I found this Alvis in the car park and couldn't resist photgraphing its chrome!

It was the annual Spring Sprint today at the Goodwood Motor Circuit so we went along, armed with my camera. The cars which participate in this event compete against each other by doing timed laps of the track rather than by wheel to wheel racing. There’s always a good mix of cars entered but as usual it was the older models which attracted most of my attention. I found myself mostly taking shots of details, including all the shiny bits of chrome trim. I was particularly taken with a rather lovely red Maserati which features here twice and I just had to include a shot of an MG 1100 which was running on track. The first car Kevin remembers from his childhood was the family Austin 1100 which looked almost the same, apart from the badge, so this car holds a certain amount of nostalgia for him.
