The Vintage Sports-Car Club’s Spring Start was a weekend devoted to historic automotive beauty. Enjoy this brief glimpse of the cars on show, and see more of the images by clicking here. The VSCC is a club for enthusiasts of pre-war motoring and Silverstone hosted a staggering collection of machinery on April 20-21 2013, not just sitting in the paddock looking pretty and polished but heading at top speed down the pit straight and around the National circuit.
Awards and trophies were competed for all weekend, including the illustrious Boulogne trophy and other historic prizes such as the GP Itala and Lanchester Trophies, the Fox and Nicholl Trophy and the new Halford Trophy for special vintage racing cars.
As the event lasted two days there were more races for spectators to enjoy, including those organised by the Historic Grand Prix Cars Association and the Commander Yorke Trophy race for F3 500cc cars.
Cars from around Europe and the world came together to compete, including a grid of pre-war Aston Martins to help celebrate the marque’s centenary.
