Jersey Old Motor Club Boxing Day Run. 2008

Some 100 pre 1950 motor cars turned out to partake in the 40th 12 Parish Church Cavalcade. Weather was glorious with sunshine, but cold. Many families and friends make this a tradition every year to enter to blow away those cobwebs from Christmas day. Pictures to follow when I am able to load them to this new web site!

Jersey Road Race

Did you know that the 1952 Jersey “Grand Prix” was won by a brand new C Type Jaguar from the world renowned Ecurie Ecosse team? This car had just been driven straight from the factory to Jersey so it had to complete a running in period of 1000 miles around our little lanes before the race. Mr. Salmon (see above) remembers doing 140mph along the five mile road in it!
