Le Mans racers, classic GT cars, club displays and a real ale pub are just some of the elements that come together to make the Silverstone Classic so popular.

And all – including the Scarf & Goggles pub – will be making an appearance at Historic Motorsport International (23-26 February) at ExCeL, London, as the world’s largest festival of classic motor racing meets the world’s newest exhibition dedicated to the sport.

With more than 1,000 entries representing the finest historic racing in Europe, the Silverstone Classic is a must-do event held at the famous Grand Prix circuit every July.

To highlight the sheer scale of the event, the Classic will be taking pole position at the inaugural HMI with a substantial display that underlines the event’s diversity.

Visitors to HMI will be able to gaze not just at the machinery that makes Silverstone Classic so spectacular, but also at a large screen broadcast of the highlights from last year’s Classic while enjoying a pint of Silverstone Real Ale from a pop-up Scarf & Goggles pub.

“The Silverstone Classic is a wonderful event packed with iconic cars, spectacular racing, displays from more than 100 one-make car clubs and a whole lot more besides. We are delighted that HMI can play host to a preview of the event and visitors can look forward to meeting up at the Scarf & Goggles to ensure they really get the flavour of the weekend,” said Ian France, Show Director, HMI.

Historic Motorsport International will be held alongside the London Classic Car Show, now in its third year and looking to build on the record 33,000 visitors who visited the 2016 event. This will be the second year Porsche Club will be in attendance and we look forward to welcoming members new and current onto our stand.
