Donington Historic Festival
In 2011 and 2012 the race action at the Donington Historic Festival saw more than 300 historic racing cars from the 1920s to the 1980s, battling for victory.
There were Group C Le Mans sportscars, GT40s and Ferrari GTOs, Touring Cars from the 70s and 80s, pre-War Bentleys, Bugattis and Alfa Romeos and much, much more.
As well as watching these icons fight it out on track, spectators could wander round the race paddocks, enjoying free access and getting up close to the cars and stars.
There were plenty of off-track attractions and live action � including legendary Group B rally cars, historic karts, autojumble and memorabilia stalls, caf�s, bars and food outlets � and extensive club displays of classic cars.
The Donington Historic Festival is a partnership between Historic Promotions Ltd and Donington Park Racing Ltd.
