Shelsley Walsh, Sunday, 18th August, 2013.

The theme of today is a Celebration of Aston Martin. So let's be naughty and start with a shot of an unsuccessful car: the ill-fated AMR One from 2011. Still, it looks the part, doesn't it?
Steve Briggs about to give the 2009 Lola-Aston Martin DBR1/2 some wellie from a rolling start.
Howard's up for giving those pesky Astons a run for their money.
Don't spill a drop Vic! 
Every sip is precious in this long hot sultry summer of 2013. It'll go down in the annuls, you'll see.
At last! David's got a big one of his own to play with. 
Trouble is, it's a bit surplus to requirements at a hillclimb.
Multi-champion Scott Moran and the next generation of the hillclimbing family dynasty.
The most photographed buzzard at Shelsley circles the paddock.
There's too many people here, says David for the umpteenth time. 
We should have come on the Saturday!
What manner of hillclimbing lunacy is this!?
It's Karl Scholar in his 1000cc Spectre Mk 7, actually. Makes yer wonder what the first six versions must have looked like, eh?
David cracked his toe on the side of the bed whilst getting ready this morning and has been whining on about his discomfort to an unsympathetic Vicky (and Howard) all day. 
And get yer cowin' toe-nails cut an' all!
