VSCC – motor sports galore since 1934

• 

The Vintage Sports-Car Club has become an oldtimer on its own, eight decades after it was instigated. But fortunately it still oozes the same atmosphere of a slightly eccentric members-only social club for gentlemen, and a few women, preferring anything dangerous, which smells of oil and partially unburnt mixture and will be quick when pushed to its surprisingly far-reaching boundaries.

Back at the time of its forming members’ cars had to be at least 5 years old – that’s anything pre-1929. Since that first meeting in October 1934 there has been some debate about the question of the age of eligible cars, but eventually the club decided that the limit should be kept at 31 December 1930. That was back in 1936, and the club has never come back to it.
