    Smile Hedingham Castle 2012

    The 5th annual "Classics at the Castle" event was held last weekend at Hedingham Castle in Essex, UK. This has quickly become the premier event in the UK for classic and racing Porsche. This year saw more than 40 genuine 2.7 RS turn out for the 40th anniversary including 6 2.8 RSR. Guests of honour were Vic Elford and Dickie Attwood and also on show were the Le Mans winning 917K (the real one) and the Daytona winning 907LH. There were lots of other special cars - too many to mention. See http://www.sportscardigest.com/porsc...rt-and-photos/ for some excellent pictures and this DDK thread for discussion http://www.ddk-online.com/phpBB2/vie...p?f=20&t=40237. Enjoy - we did!
