You have of course missed out the number of events organised throughout
the summer by the Vintage Sports Car Club - which now has a WWW site at

www.vscc.co.uk

Their meetings are mainly for pre-war cars. Although at the race meetings
there are races for 50s Sports cars and front engined GP cars.
Incidentally, the vast majority of the fastest racers in original cars are
out every meeting with the VSCC

Look at this years calender, it would be a fair bet that the meetings will
not change

Prescott in early august is considered the best by a lot of visitors

Hope this helps
