Radnor Hunt Concours 2011
The 15th Annual Radnor Hunt Concours d' Elegance featured Stutz automobiles, Jaguars E-Types and the designs of Virgil Exner, the great finned dream machines of the 1950's. The motorcycle group featured Ducati, from Cucciolo to Desmosedici and a special group of Italian lightweight machines.
Take one : A behind the scenes look filming at the Simeone Museum. Two of our guests share an on-camera moment for the TV show project that we're working on. Dave Hailwood interviews Nobby about his time in the Grand Prix scene and the famous 1967 Isle of Man TT battle between David father, the late Mike Hailwood and Giacomo Agostini. Nobby was Mikes Honda mechanic and was also with him when he made his famous comeback in 1978 at the Isle of Man on a Ducati.

Hailwood rides again! Dave give the superb 1973 Ducati 750SS a try for size. Easy does it Dave, that one's worth six figures plus !
Stutz was the featured marque for the Radnor Hunt Concours and Nobby got a chance to test one at the museum before the big event. Driver Kevin got it going quick enough to leave black marks on the asphalt during cornering.

Dave tries out the Eric Buell Racing Superbike at the FBF showroom. In the background, the ex-Luca Scassa MV Agusta AMA superbike, the pre-production '99 MV Agusta F4750 Oro that has a film history and the 1000ccCC Model F4MV, the ultimate version of the stunning MV superbike. Leathers from Mladin to Spencer, Kocinski, Corser all hang in the rafters. Mr. Ferraci and Doug Polen won two World Superbike titles before scooping up two AMA Superbike titles. This dealership has a worldwide reputation for winning performance.
During the RH Road Rally, these two young ladies were driving a Porsche quickly thru the Chester County , PA backroads, but the cool Mr. Clark stayed in close proximity in the Audi A7 with Dave at the wheel. The young ladies found out he's the real deal, with true to life stories from the Swingin' Sixties club of London. I believe they were duly impressed.
