Curborough Sprint – Happy Motoring Personified

For the last few years I have followed up the frenetic activity at the Silverstone Festival (formally known as the Silverstone Classic) with a relaxing day taking photographs at a small sprint track near Birmingham known as Curborough.

Each August Bank Holiday the track hosts a Charity Day organised by VSCC stalwarts, David and Lucy Leigh. It is an untimed event, so helmets are not mandatory. This provides a chance to really see the pleasure ( and sometimes fear) on the faces of drivers and passengers.

There is always an eclectic, and often whacky selection of cars on show.

Regardless of what or how they were driving everyone seemed to be having a happy time.
