HGPCA Donington
|
5 May 2026
|
The HGPCA 2026 season finally got underway at Donington Park in the Midlands. An over subscribed field meant for a busy weekend. Elliott Hann managed to jump from reserve to race competing before the weekend started. Along side Elliot was Glenn Loxton in his Maserati 250F that we had rebuilt over the winter and not long handed over to Glenn and his race mechanic Ed to race in the 2026 season.
After a good qualifying on Friday Race 1 was a full grid of 30 cars. Elliott has obviously decided he likes it on the podium as he spent all weekend going up and down onto it. Finishing second overall in the front engine and winning his class (6) both on Saturday and matching the same on a damp Sunday morning.

Nurburgring 52nd Old timer
|
4 Aug 2025
|
The Nurburgring Old Timer is one of Europe's largest historic motorsport events. Following the previous HGPCA event at Oulton Park being for rear engine only cars, the Old Timer was for front engine only cars with an impressive 21 cars on the grid.
With mixed weather predicted it was to be an interesting weekend.
Fridays qualifying was dry with drivers feeling their way around the modified circuit layout. John Spiers and Klaus Lehr both sitting on the second row.
Saturday was a different track, the weather fluctuating between massive downpours and light drizzle. We watched the previous races competitors switch tyres, wet/dry/wet. Fortunately our race being late in the day and the weather settling to a steady miz as they say in Norfolk.
John Spiers took full advantage of the rolling start and got off to a flying start before going wide at turn 1. An epic battle between Richard Wilson in his newly rebuilt Ferrari Dino and John Spiers for first place with Klaus Lehr and Rod Jolley Battling for third. Unfortunately Klaus missed out on his podium place after a spin towards the end.
The rain was replaced by a chill wind for Sunday. Both John and Klaus ran extremely well but the Lotus 16 of Joaquin Folch was very strong in the katter part of the race , JOhn and Klaus finishing 3rd & 4th
