Wow - my Dad's A35 van never went quite as fast as these!
That looks like FUN!!!!!!!!!!
My dad had an A35 company car,he used to terrify me the speed he took corners,they were known for instability problems but it didn’t bother him he was nuts,my first car was the MK1 Austin A40 Farina which was pretty similar in mechanicals to the A35s but it never went like these do,I always had the idea of putting the MG1100 engine in it but never got round to it and bought a Series 6 Morris Oxford with the 1622cc engine,another Dozey lump but very reliable.
I'm surprised there's this many of these things still alive but somewhat embarrassed that I still know the difference between an A30 & an A35 having not even seen one in at least 40yrs.
NZ Salt Flats Racer your a man of a certain age 😁
Yep, & still racing as hard as I did when I raced against those little bugger's way back then. Old is a hole people fall into, I refuse. My latest endeavor is the 500mph wheel driven barrier.
NZ Salt Flats Racer good on ya mate I hope you do and look forward to the video
Racing these A30's/A35's probably feels like 500 mph! On the flip-side I went on the Thrust SSC simulator at Coventry Motor Museum and it felt as if I was in an ordinary road going Austin A30/A35! It felt absolutely nothing like Land Record Breaking 760 mph speed to me!
A good speed run will feel smooth & eventless, if not, you probably crashed.
90 HP and brakes! It makes perfect racing.
Really shouldn't have watched this! Makes me want one
This made me smile.
These cars are pretty much like scarabs: they were not made to fly, but they DO - and do good.
The A30’s should be obliged to use their trafficators on all bends!
Comical but i cant stop watching.
I have driven an A35, but I wasn't daft enough to race one.
Smile factor :). Genius little design..
We had a black A35 Never in my wildest dreams thought they could be raced. Only have motion but zero acceleration
What a great race the little austins get along and how safe are they just a roll bar and you can roll about six times land on your wheels get out and walk around were these old cars that unsafe they were solid maybe cars built today could learn from the cars today l would much rather roll an A30 than a modern car a solid car with all these air bags when a racing harness and a roll cage is all you need in solid car
Brilliant.
Amazing that some of these cars are nearly 70 years old and racing in anger. I bet the people at Austin of England never envisaged that when they were making them
How can they have more hp than my car?
I notice there are a number of A30s here. I don't know if they improved the brakes and steering for the A35 but both of these would have made racing "challenging". As would the relatively poor rear shock absorber performance. I enjoyed my A30 greatly and it was a surprisingly efficient body design for usable space or for working on the engine bay. However even despite the low power output racing would have been quite scary.
Brilliant!
Still no after race interviews !!????
Those are adorable
Oh, they are so cute!!! (I know, I know . . . but they ARE!)
Couple of A30s there, smaller rear window.
To check with a Jaguar salloon...give me an A35, alot more fun, and alot cheaper for parts too!! 😃
How is it that some of these A35s could land in the top 10 of a ‘60s Group 7 race?
In English speak, shouldn’t the leader be identified as One & 20?
So cute🥺🥺
Where's Charles Charlie Charles one half of the famous Charles brothers
Sledge hammer bottle jack she will be back on the track next week.
17:05. Ex-British Prime Minister Gordon Brown is enjoying racing!
Seriously ?
i would be nice if there is a new car with that body design but performance of a modern car....im 50 yrs old i dont find new cars beautiful
How about Fiat 500 abarth edition.
I agree, that new cars are pretty souless affairs. But you have to take in technology and safety of the vehicle. I am surprised and disappointed they didn't do a modern take on the A30,/35, people would lap them up..
I totally agree with you. Modern car design is so uninteresting. Meaningless 'swoops' and indentations in the panels - terrible vision thanks to the 'swept up' rear quarters, claustrophobic, tacky interiors, full of bling. Silly designs for the lights. We were offered a Merc A180 rental car - really yuk. As for safety - well at least the driver had a great view out in an A35 and it's contemporaries.
Doughnut jam...
Great race, but to many adverts
6:00
Sad to see 1 car roll...but l feel that with the care given to these cars, that it will be rebuilt...
Why not...
They are so cute great shape...and like the mini's, so entertaining.
Pity that people don't make a kit car...so that some of us, again could see some on the roads...and tracks .
However, the EU .. will waggle there fingers....no...no ..no.. contamination...🤨 Dip sticks
These must be the fastest cars in the World.
Best little cars in the world. So many have survived !
Ah, England.
Hilarious! Trouble is they’re actually serious 😳, You only need to watch the first minute , the rest it no more funny .
