Grp 1 racing

Post by Brynmor »

Ok so i'm not really up on some forms of Historic racing, therefore i'm wondering outside of Goodwood MM, where do the Grp 1 cars race for the rest of the year?

Obvious reason for asking is I have something that could be taken to that spec longer term , but nosing about the net I can't seem to find a series / classes for them?

and is that one meeting genuine FIA Gp1 or the very different British so-called Gp1 also known in period as "Group One and a Half"?

I would be very surprised if the cars in 2015 would meet the group 1 and a half regs of the 70' and 80's.
