Classic car racing on the grid.

TWO of the most famous classic car marques in the world - Jaguar and Porsche - will take centre stage at Oulton Park circuit on Saturday when the Classic Sports Car Club makes its debut at the picturesque Cheshire circuit.

The meeting will be a feast for classic sports car enthusiasts, with more than 160 entries ready to line up for the event's eight-race programme.

The CSCC's own Swinging Sixties championship will feature in the day's longest race, with a 40-minute outing for sports and saloon cars of the 1950s and 60s. Joe Henderson's Triumph TR5 was victorious in last month's meeting at Snetterton.

Jaguars will feature in three races - the XJS Challenge, Soilmec/JEC Challenge for all types of Big Cat saloons and the Miller Oils 'Powered by Jaguar' Championship, which will feature more XJS models as well as replica D Types.

The Darlington & District Motor Club's Northern Sports/Saloons completes the bill with an eclectic mix of machinery.

The first of eight races starts at 1.15pm and tickets cost pounds 12 for adults with children aged 12 and under free
