CRMC CADWELL 2019: EXTENSIVE HIGHLIGHTS

Here is the story of my day at the Classic Motorcycle Racing Club's annual visit to the Cadwell Park racing circuit in Lincolnshire, England. This is not a fully finished video and has a few rough edges but gives an impression of how the day was. Weather was pretty fantastic unlike the saturday which was horrible apparently, so enjoy some of the best classic racing available in the UK. My thoughts are that the noise regulations are quite frankly taking the piss and have destroyed the natural sound of how this period in history was, and some of the exhaust systems which have been grafted onto the machines look ridiculous, so the looks and sound of the four-stroke machines are not as they should be, which is quite tragic. Back in the 1980's the CRMC club magazine was called "Open Mega" - no such thing any more from what I could see - just whispering bikes going 'round the circuit. However, the two-strokes are very much unaffected by this and are much more authentic, although I have to question where all the Rotax engined machines have disappeared to. They were very prominent in the early eighties and none were here at this meeting? Machines on this video include a couple of very nice TZ750 machines, the usual Triumph Tridents and BSA Rocket 3's. Not a lot of real classic exotica, but maybe the CRMC Donington meeting will be better - let's hope so . . .
