Thruxton 50th Anniversary Race Schedule
There is a wide and varied race programme of this weekend’s Thruxton 50th Anniversary meeting, with in addition high-speed demonstrations runs for an hour each day for a wide variety of cars including Formula One and Touring Cars.
While the Formula One cars may grab the headlines, the raes to watch out for could well be those for the Mini Sevens and Miglias, bit in particular the two Formula Ford 1600 races on Sunday. The HSCC’s FF1600 races are always exciting, the more so at Cadwell recently when front-runner Nelson Rowe and a race stopping incident, but Thruxton has always been slip-streaming heave for the Formula Fords and the site of the pack flat out coming up the hill to the chicane will be a highlight of the weekend.
