A small sample from this years Silver Flag Hillclimb. Great event, great cars what more can I say. . .

Great set of pictures there!

Nice and sharp great DOF and good colour range!

Lovely pictures.

Was it definitely a hill climb and not just a parade, as plenty don't have helmets on!

google says that the event is no-longer timed so it is up to the driver just how hard he wants to attack the hill, with some people obviously just doing it for the enjoyment rather than the outright pace.

very nice photos by the way!

Love the calm look on the guys face in the Alfa (pic 9).

Clearly got a small amount of lock on and he looks like he could be shopping for food on the internet.

Whats the two seater car (where they're sitting in front of one another)?? Looks like a 1970's car ??

Indeed the event in no longer timed but attracts nearly 200 cars from early 1900 Fiats up to Formula 1 Ferraris.
The two seater is run by racecarrides.com and is a 460bhp Chevvy engined Lola F5000.
I'l post some pics of the Val Camonica hillclimb run by the Nostalgia club. Fewer entries but a proper mountain climb.
