Glad you liked it, great fun even as a spectator.

Nice to see people who really use their old cars.

As English as tuppence and delightfully eccentric. Wonderful. I'm going to have to join the club.

Bloody marvelous and very sporting Family Affair ,wholesome

alive cars they dont stay only in a warm garage :-) very cool

A distinctly peculiar English pastime. At the end of each run, the mud on each car is weighed and the car with the most mud wins.

@Military Museum - it helps the standard road tyres (all they're allowed) dig in and grip. If you listen carefully you can hear the revs drop slightly as their bums hit the seats and the tyres get more grip. HTH.

Thanks for that footage. Do you happen to know if the MG J2 (reg. FW3909) owned by I believe a Mr Bennett is still being shown outings? I don't see it in this film. I ask because the car was originally owned by my grandfather and I keep a look out for it...

Hi, it is probably best if you contact the Vintage Sports Car Club to see if they can help - www.vscc.co.uk/

Where can I donate a kidney to participate in one of these events.

Not a good idea, you’ll lose the other one when you do participate. Then you’ll be asking for the return of the one you gave away.

It’s not actually expensive. These trials have taken place since the early days of the motor car. The main prerequisite is having an eligible vehicle.

I really liked this video. Some of the cars are unknown to me. Could you tell me what the cars are at 1:22 and at 2:00 ? They are really cute and small. They appear to be about the same size as a Smart fortwo,

@@geoffmaltby7267 Thank you so much for the answer. I loved the looks of those little cars. You are awesome !

I shared this video with my girlfriend because I was impressed by the performance of those old-timers. She asks: "When were these old cars build approximately?" (?)

I'm no expert but I think they tend to be vehicles manufactured in the 30's. Perhaps someone with more knowledge will add a comment.

@@peterjbrown1458 The VSCC was formed in 1934 to ensure continued enjoyment and preservation of pre-1931 cars. It essentially remains so although there have been exceptions to the date cut-off for certain vehicles conforming to standards established at the Club's inception. The cars shown here date from before 1931, in many cases from the late 1920s. Some are extremely valuable which makes their vigorous enjoyment all the more pleasing! Nice bit of filming, too....

Is there a speed limit, or are they going at full tilt?

The objective is to get to the finish without stopping. So, speed is not an issue as long as the car moves forward.

muito bom.

Great to see these old bangers getting thrashed and not ending up as museum pieces haha
