"The Hillclimb" Martin Cheethams record breaking run up Wiscombe Park Hillclimb in 1988, meeting organised by the Aston Martin Owners Club, this record took along time to break. I hate to think what revs are pulled going up the straight.
Sounds lovely especially on Castle Straight! Shame the AMOC don't have Wiscombe on their calender any more. I remember seeing '2 VEV' DB4 GT Zagato (ex Jim Clark) there around 1990ish running with open exhaust...
I was there - and the noise was even better when standing in the woods - you could hear it right across the valley!. The car was superb - but very fragile if I remember correctly. (Embarrasingly I think was over 20 seconds slower!)
