AC Bluebird crossing the finish line in first in class at Goodwood 2021 ACOC Club Sprint
SUCCESS at GOODWOOD

This year there was no rain at the AC Owners’ Club Sprint Race at Goodwood. In dry conditions I was able to hurtle round the Goodwood circuit in AC Bluebird and win my class in a tough race up against an AC Special and a very fast AC Greyhound.

Almost lost the car on one run at St Mary’s Corner, but managed to get the car off the grass and in the right direction.

A big thank you to Peter de Rousset-Hall who took these brilliant photographs and managed to avoid photographing me struggling on grass. No rain, but the grass was very slippery!
