This is the first time I have attended the Nostalgia Weekend, or Croft Circuit for that matter. Both are well worth a visit. The weather on the Sunday was mainly dry but incredibly windy – several gents ran past me chasing stray caps and my long neglected sprinting abilities were called upon to save one small child’s cuddly toy!!
As well as a classic race meeting, the weekend also features Military and Commercial vehicles, Classic Motorbikes and aircraft. Many of the attendees dress up in period, lending the whole affair a bit of a ‘Goodwood in the North’ feel.
Croft itself is a super little circuit with a couple of long straights and a challenging mixture of fast and slow corners. Viewing is excellent.
