..just to the south-west of Salisbury.
It was only practice day but entertaining nonetheless. If you are local then I suggest you go.
Hope you like these.

I think the rear arches are too small and if I remember it was front wheel drive.

Re: Today I visited Gurston Farm Hillclimb.....

I drove up Gurston Hillclimb a few years back. I love the way that it starts off going slightly downhil. The real quick cars get up to some mental speeds before having to anchor up for that first hairpin right, even I got up to 75mph in my 998cc metro!

Re: Today I visited Gurston Farm Hillclimb.....

Great photos there. There are always some really interesting specials at Hillclimbs. A few guys from our Formula Student team (well....I say our but I've just finished so it's now my old team ) went a while back to look at some of them. The engineering on many of them is very applicable to our car:
