FILM NIGHT – THE SNAKE & THE STALLION – THURSDAY 22 NOVEMBER 2012 SILVERSTONE WING We will be returning to The Wing’s Auditorium on Thursday 22 November to show the extraordinary film of how Carroll Shelby, together with a group of Southern Californian hot-rodders and the Cobra took on the might of Enzo Ferrari and his GTO in the mid 60s. Ten years in the making, this fast-paced, split screen epic film is the definitive and certainly most comprehensive film ever made on the subject. The drinks reception will be at 6pm with the film being shown promptly at 6.30pm. Following the film there will be a Q&A with at least one of the drivers featured in the film (who is also a Member of this Club, of course).

  • We Celebrate One of the Great Racing Car Constructors
    LOLA AT 60 WE CELEBRATE ONE OF THE GREAT RACING CAR CONSTRUCTORS Including FROM BROADLEY TO BIRRANE GREATEST CARS LOLA’S SECRET WEAPON THE AUDI CHALLENGER The success of the Mk1 sports-racer, usually powered by the Coventry Climax 1100cc FWA engine, brought Lola Cars into existence. It overshadowed the similar e orts of Lotus boss Colin Chapman and remained competitive for several seasons. We believe it is one of designer Eric Broadleyʼs greatest cars, so turn to page 16 to see what our resident racer made of the original prototype at Donington Park. Although the coupe is arguably more iconic, the open version of the T70 was more successful. Developed in 1965, the Group 7 machine could take a number of di erent V8 engines and was ideal for the inaugural Can-Am contest in ʼ66. Champion John Surtees, Dan Gurney and Mark Donohue won races during the campaign, while Surtees was the only non-McLaren winner in ʼ67. The big Lola remains a force in historic racing.
