Bentley Drivers Club - Race Meeting

Hosting its 78th race meeting at Silverstone, the Bentley Drivers Club has long been a favourite on the calendar for vintage and classic-car racing enthusiasts.

We look forward to supporting ThamesMOG member Howard Clarke, in the Morgan Challenge races.

Boasting a 'summer garden-party' atmosphere and plenty of track action. The day's blue-riband event will see Bentleys of all ages, some around 100 years old, being driven with the same verve as the legendary Bentley Boys of yesteryear.

Supporting races on the packed programme will see plenty of action from classic marques such as two 20 minute Morgan Challenge races and FISCAR take to the track for a day of on-track entertainment.

The Bentley Drivers Club meeting is a very friendly affair. Families take picnics and sit in the sun or the grandstands to watch the racing, or wonder around the paddock to admire the vintage Bentleys; look at the many variety of race cars; and talk to the drivers.

There is usually a large contingency of Morgans from the local Centres who park up at Corpse corner.

The Bentley Drivers Club was instrumental in the running of the first British Grand Prix in 1948.  The event was organised by the Royal Automobile Club whose President wrote to the BDC Chairman to ask if the club could help run the event – 150 club members helped with car parking, marshalling, scoreboard and scrutineering duties.
