It just shows you the advances in cameras and photography over the last 80 or so years, when you compare Nigel's fantastic shots with those taken in the late 1930's, often on an old plate camera, where you'd be lucky to be able to carry more than about 12 plates a day, without going back to the darkroom to reload!
If you'd told a prewar photographer, that one day, you'd have a camera producing great colour shots, with a zoom lens that focused automatically - and you'd be able to store thousands of images on something about the size of five postage stamps stuck together, you would have been classed as totally bonkers. If you'd also said that you'd be able to manipulate the images in a thousand different ways whilst sitting on a bus or train and send them across the world in seconds, or send colour movies with stereo sound to hundreds of people, they would probably have locked you up.
We may not care too much for the modern cars, but we sure do appreciate the technology!
In date order - possibly:
Earl Howe - ERA . Not the sharpest of pics and due for a tidy up.
I have no idea who these two are or what date, but the Kevin Kline lookalike cracks me up!
Bira chases Mays when there were trees all around the Donington track, not to mention the squared kerb. Pretty - but dangerous.
Muller, Auto-Union. Brave men with over 500bhp on skinny tyres, no seat belts, helmet etc., and a narrow tree lined track. Image partially cleaned up as it wasn't the best.
