The Aston Martin Owners Club has organised race meetings at Oulton Park for many years, and this photograph was taken at the 2002 meeting, in May of that year.
It's the start of Race 2 at that meeting, the long-winded sounding 'Pre-War Feltham Aston Martin Sports Cars + Other Pre-War/50s Sports Cars' race. Leading off the grid is Alan Collett's 2,922cc 1958 Aston Martin DB MkIII (SXT 1), and behind him the 3,780cc 1952 Jaguar C-Type (PUG 676) of Ben Cussons alongside the 2,922cc 1950 Aston Martin DB2 (VMF 65) of Oliver Leyba. Just poking its nose into the picture is another DB MkIII (MSL 277), the red 1958 model of Michael Hudson.
