Old School racing back in town at the Donington Historic Festival

Old School racing back in town at the Donington Historic Festival

 

 

Anyone in the UK and fancy’s a liitle bit of old school, then there is always the GT3 Legends races at Donington Park as they help to form part of the Donington Historic Festival from the circuit this weekend.

Although the adverts for the event have said more but twenty-nine iconic GT3 chariots of just a few years ago take to the 1.97mile National Circuit layout as part of this weekend’s festival.

 

Scrolling down the entry list and you will see BMW Z4’s, McLaren MP4 12C’s, Lamborghini Gallardo’s, Nissan GTRs and of course some V12 Aston Martin Vantage GT3s amongst others.

From what we can see, there will be at least four such Aston Martin Racing powered beasts on track with the likes of Shaun Lynn, Graham Davidson and Jonathon Mitchell all taking their steads out for a stretch.

 

Today saw both Qualifying sessions take place before the series will host one fifty-minute race on both Saturday and Sunday – with the pit lane garages having the benefit of the GT3 teams within them should you fancy an amble down the paddock side of them.

From what we can tell – one will be in the former TRG-AMR racing colours, another from the Oman Racing era plus one apiece from the TF Sport and Massive Motorsport teams back in the day.
