THE roar of the engine, the spray of the mud - there are few things more thrilling than a vintage sports car trial.
As our pictures show there has been plenty of action taking place in Herefordshire over the years.
These vintage care pictures are shared with you today with kind permission of the Vintage Sports-Car Club library.
Vintage and historic cars evoke enthusiasm and spark a passion; and since 1934 the Vintage Sports-Car Club has provided an arena for people to enjoy pre-war cars competitively and socially.  
Active in every aspect of motoring and motorsport for pre-war cars, the VSCC is one of the largest and best regarded motoring clubs in the world. 
All are welcome to enjoy the VSCC and its many activities, but why not join this great movement and take advantage of 85 years of history and tradition?
