Back at the Goodwood Festival of Speed today, a free ticket as a reward for those involved in a work project that went very well. Bigger crowds for Sunday, which I used for these hit-and-miss panning shots
61 (P10 FOS)
Mercedes-Benz 609D/unknown C19F
Fosters of Aylesbury
Aylesbury, 10 June 2003
An earlier view of P10 FOS in the town's dingy bus station, presumably on a private hire as this operator is not known to have ever operated any stage services. Fosters' vehciles, especially the smaller ones, always seemed to be quite a rare sight even in the local area, and appeared mainly to do rail replacement and private hire work.
Mercedes CLK-GTR used on FIA GT championship 1998.
The Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR (W297) is a sports car and race car that was built by Mercedes-AMG, performance and motorsports arm of Mercedes-Benz. Intended for racing in the new FIA GT Championship series in 1997, the CLK GTR was designed primarily as a race car, with the road cars necessary in order to meet homologation standards being secondary in the car's design. Thus the limited production road-going cars are considered racing cars for the road.
After competing successfully in 1997, the race car was upgraded in 1998 for the 24 Hours of Le Mans and renamed the CLK LM. Following the construction of the CLK LMs and the CLK GTR road cars, the project would end in 1999 by being replaced by the Mercedes-Benz CLR Le Mans prototype.
