At the end of June, the Pursuit team took to the track for Motor Racing Legends’ Snetterton Classic weekend, a staple of the MRL racing calendar. The Daytona Cobra and Lotus Elan were out on-track on Saturday in the Royal Automobile Club Pall Mall Cup, and on Sunday the Lister Costin also took to the circuit in the RAC Woodcote Trophy & Stirling Moss Trophy.

In the Pall Mall Cup on Saturday, the Daytona Cobra and Elan headed out in the sunshine for a competitive qualifying, securing P2 in the Daytona and P5 in the Elan. After setting themselves up for success in qualifying, the two Pursuit cars set out for the 3-hour race. After an hour of competitive driving team-Pursuit held the 1-2 positions ahead of several more Elans, a TVR and E-Type. After a hard-fought 3 hours on track, the Daytona Cobra came through in first place, with the Elan of Shaun Lynn and Christoph Cowens in a close second only a few seconds behind after 3hrs. The Pursuit Elan finished 3rd overall. Well done to the team and drivers on securing a win and two podiums!

On Sunday the Lister Costin came back from P8 in qualifying to achieve 5th overall and 2nd in class in the RAC Woodcote Trophy & Stirling Moss Trophy. It was a weekend of Mixed weather and the Motor Racing Legends event did not disappoint. Thanks to all the Pursuit team, circuit staff and most importantly the drivers for making it a memorable weekend at Snetterton.
