Thanks for watching the video and yes I’m in total agreement!

Yes you’re right it does get a bit warm and noisy. In Australia it would be challenging if it was a long drive! Thanks for taking the time to watch. D

What a lovely image from a different time! Probably not the easiest car to drive if it had the 3 speed gearbox. Great cars that I still feel are undervalued. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. All the best, Duncan

Thanks Russ for your lovely comment and taking time to watch the video. It is a lovely thing! All the best.

So pleased you enjoyed the video. The Assembly Rooms has the best view of the racing in my opinion. So glad it lived up to your expectations and wow it was warm - not ideal when wearing tweed!

Thanks for watching the vid and your supportive comment. Yes, I think the entry list this year was incredibly impressive.

It’s reading comments like this that make it all worthwhile! I’m not familiar with the Raymond Mays book you reference but ERA R7B was first owned and raced by Arthur Dobson. The most notable result being 6th in the 1938 Donington GP behind The Auto Unions & Mercedes GP cars. My Great Uncle Dudley Gahagan owned it from the early ‘60s to 1998. Thanks again for the support, it’ll certainly encourage me to do more. All the best.

Thank you very much for your kind comment @feta3872

Thank you for your very kind comments. It’s a highlight of the year for me so it’s a joy to put a video together and share it. If others enjoy it then that’s a real bonus. Thanks again.

I think you’ve seen the trailer for Millionaire Hoarders? Yes she’s part of the presenting team (first time!) so will hopefully be in each episode. The first one goes out on the 4th August. No cars unfortunately!

@@thehistoricsportscarcollection Interesting. I wish her well and shall be watching. Keep up the good work Duncan.

Thank you for your comment @dickieb2233 . I think the enthusiasm for EVs seems to be dissipating. There was a Bentley 3 litre there running on synthetic fuel and it had no major changes to accommodate the fuel. How much it costs per litre I don’t know!

@@thehistoricsportscarcollection Quite, Harry Metcalf runs some if his cars on a synthetic fuel and many of the Le Mans Classic entrants were do so. Pricing should be more palatable shortly.

Yes you’re correct. I think it was in the mid 1980s when Goodwood was being used only for testing. He was in a F3 car I believe.

Thank you Dennis for the feedback. I think you're right about the Daytona Cobras. The Duke of Richmond managed to get most of the original ones together at the Goodwood Revival a few years ago - an incredible sight. I love the the liveries on the 70s 'big banger' sports cars, especially on the Lola. Great to think of you guys enjoying the videos all the way over there on the west coast - I'll try and keep them coming! all the best

Thanks Dennis for the positive feedback, it’s very much appreciated. Now the summer is here with more events I can hopefully build up the content. Thank you for watching and taking time to comment. All the best.

Thank you Jon for watching and your positive feedback. It really makes a difference to know that people are enjoying the output. Hopefully more will be on the way.

Thank you Dennis for your kind comments. It's lovely to hear that people enjoy the videos as much as I do putting them together. I should have gone on the Saturday then I could have made a longer film!

My heart goes out to you Dickie. I lost my father two months ago so I have some understanding of what you’re experiencing. Thank you for taking the time to comment and I’m glad that the video brought you a little levity at a difficult time. Take care of yourself Dickie.

@@thehistoricsportscarcollection Thank you for your kind words. I am sorry to hear your news. Let us hope that they knew love whilst they were here.

Thank you for your appreciative comments John. The Edwardian cars have become so popular over here and the racing this year was incredibly close with the Sunbeam Indianapolis losing out by less than a second in both races. Incredible stuff for cars over 100 years old. Building a Type 59 Bugatti- I raise my hat to you sir! Those things are a work of art. Glad you’re enjoying the videos all the way over there.

Thanks Mike for watching and your comments. I’ll keep an eye out for the book, its sounds like a good read.

Thanks Dusty for your comment. I’ve got more footage in the pipeline so hopefully new content will be arriving soon. Thanks for watching.

Thanks Jeff for your supportive comments. It’s a lovely little thing. Hopefully have some more of these little reviews of classics in the near future.

Yep you’re right!

Thank you so much for your comment. I apologise for not seeing it earlier! Yes the Jowett was something a bit different and that Healey ticks so many boxes. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching- hopefully more stuff coming soon.

I’ve always loved the TVRs. The V8 Griffith is the ultimate of course but yes I’d certainly settle for a Grantura. A bit easier to tame probably! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.

@The Historic Sports Car Collection I do wonder how many got converted to Ford V8 power. I'd be happy with a b-series engine. Probably much more easy to drive on the road. Certainly the independent rear end these cars have made it more advanced then the Shelby cobra. Not that I'd prefer one over the other. I'm glad you appreciate my comments. Keep up the good work on the channel.

Thanks Dennis. This was one of my earlier videos before I realised the importance of adding some facts and observations with voice over. If I edited again I feel I could do a far better job. Fortunately we are only a matter of weeks away from the next Members’ Meeting so I’ll have the opportunity to create something more substantial. So glad you enjoyed it all the same and thank you for the encouragement. D

So glad you enjoyed it. It’s a very impressive place that’s welcoming to all enthusiasts. Certainly worth a visit and in a lovely part of the British countryside, the Cotswolds. I was so impressed we’ve decided to sell a car through them!

Really pleased Dennis that you found it informative. I enjoyed filming and putting it together so it’s a real positive to hear others have enjoyed it also.

Thank you Dennis. The historic race meetings are always great to report on. Not long before the 2023 season is up and running!

Thanks Dennis for your kind comment. It’s so good to hear that others enjoy what I do! I’ll try and keep the content flowing.

Thank you!

Thank you for your kind comments!

Yes such a variety of ages and styles x

These are such kind comments Harry Hunter and it’s really uplifting to hear someone enjoying the video. Hopefully these winter months will quickly pass and we’ll be back for the Members’ Meeting where hopefully I’ll be able to put together another short documentary of the event. Thanks again for your positive feedback. All the best, Duncan.

@@thehistoricsportscarcollection Thank you very much Duncan for your reply. I won't be able to come over to Goodwood this year, due to other committments. SO I will be looking out for your documentations. Again I admire your knowledge of the very old cars. My humble information only covers the touring & sport cars starting late 60's. So do keep up the good work Kind regards Helmut Helmberger aka Harry Hunter :-))

Latest news is that Goodwood will be celebrating Carroll Shelby’s life and achievements at the 2023 event which will be very special and certainly worth a visit.

Thank you Roberto for your guidance. I’ll certainly try to improve my pronunciation in the future. Forgive me for asking but I recognise your surname- you are not by any chance related to the Orsi family that took over Maserati?

@@thehistoricsportscarcollection Not absolutely. My surname is quite common in Italy. I was born in 1958 in Bologna where I live. The same city were was born Maserati Bothers Factory and Weber Carburator Factory. Nowdays of Maserati remains only the badge, because as you know it's a brand of Stellantis and factory is settled in Piedmont. Weber-Marelli instead gets his factories in Bologna and in the borough of Bologna. The name of my city cames form a large celtic tribe of "boi" settled in in this valley before the roman conquest of North Italy. Romans named celtic tribes "galli" (cocks), because they put the cock tails on their war helmets. Roman named this land "Gallia Citerior". Citerior is for neraest, cloeser to Rome.

@@robertoorsi5771 Thanks for your reply. Most of Italy has a fascinating history but thank you for the insight into Bologna. It’s a beautiful country and ideally viewed from the cockpit of a 1950s sports car on the Mille Miglia!

I think you are absolutely right Mr Eckes. I remember over the three days I was introduced to new and old friends and it was just smiles and positivity throughout.

true to the last dot. 🙂

Thank you very much Harry for your comments. I’m looking forward to next season when I can get back out there and report on some more great events.

We are lucky with the motoring heritage in the UK and the Goodwood Revival is something very special. I know you have a lot of enthusiastic collectors in Japan and Honda & Toyota are highly respected for their history. The circuits at Fuji & Suzuka would provide a dramatic location for an historic meeting!

we French too...

Thank you for your very kind comments David. Hopefully they’ll be more in the pipeline.

So pleased you enjoyed it. Hopefully there’s more to come!

Thanks Michael for your comment.

Glad you enjoyed it Jack. As I said it was a real highlight of the weekend watching you drive that 100S - drifting it out of the chicane. I’ll be in touch about some coaching for next season.

Thank you Damien for your encouragement and positive comments, I really appreciate it.

Of course, who could argue with your comment Mr Sutton? Your Son deserves greater recognition for his contribution to KZbin.

Thank you Nicholas so much for your kind comments. It really is uplifting to hear that people enjoy watching these videos as much as I do putting them together. I try to keep it light but informative for the enthusiast, hopefully you’ll enjoy the next one that’s in the pipeline!
