SUMMARY:Swinging Sixties E-type 60 Celebration with Minis
DESCRIPTION:Owners of the humble yet much-adored Mini\, in all its classic forms\, are invited to join in the celebration of that other iconic sixties British classic – the Jaguar E-type – at its 60th-anniversary event at Shelsley Walsh. \n \nThe two legendary cars often slug it out for the top spot in public votes on the Best British Car Ever\, but for the weekend of 12-13 June 2021\, any such rivalries will be put aside to celebrate 60 years since the launch of the E-type by reviving the cars\, music\, and fashion of the ‘Swinging Sixties’. \nOne of the unifying features of the event will be an homage to the 1969 film ‘The Italian Job’\, a movie that beautifully captured the mood\, energy\, and cars of the carefree decade. The actual E-type used in the film – repaired and restored since its rather one-sided fight with a Mafia bulldozer – will be on show alongside a trio of red\, white\, and blue Mini Coopers and the original six-wheeled coach\, rescued from the cliff edge. \nThe organizers are delighted to have support from Mini legend Paddy Hopkirk MBE\, whose relationship with the car started in 1963 with competitive racing on the Tour de France Automobile and the world-famous Monte Carlo Rally. \n \nAbout the Event\nOrganized by the Jaguar E-type Club\, E-TYPE 60 is celebrating 60 years since the launch of the E-type and the spectacular ‘Swinging Sixties’ and is the only event dedicated to the E-type and its anniversary. \nThe weekend will be action-packed with activity on the hillclimb each day and all day\, together with live entertainment focused on the 1960s and its outrageous trends. ​ \nCompetitive hillclimb classes\, cavalcades\, and demonstrations to include Mini and E-type. \nSpecial featured cars display to include the 9600 HP\, the original E-type press car and oldest Fixed-Head Coupé and 77 RW\, the first Open Two-Seater off the production line. Both were driven from the UK to the 1961 launch in Geneva. \nEvent Charity Partner: Hope for Tomorrow\nHope for Tomorrow is a dedicated charity\, bringing cancer care closer to patients’ homes via Mobile Cancer Care Units (MCCUs) which they provide to NHS Trusts across the country. During this global health crisis\, cancer patients are among the most vulnerable members of society. Hope for Tomorrow and their Mobile Cancer Care Units (MCCUs) allow patients to receive their treatments in a local and safe environment. Each unit costs £198 per day to run. Personal 1-2-1 care is the focus of nursing staff\, creating a safe and secure environment that helps to reassure those receiving treatment. https://hopefortomorrow.org.uk \nShelsley Walsh Hill Climb\nShelsley Walsh is the oldest motorsport venue in the world still running events on its original course. Since 1905\, Shelsley Walsh has attracted world-famous drivers. Motor-racing legends\, including Stirling Moss\, Prince Bira of Siam\, Malcolm Campbell\, Hans Stuck Sr\, Raymond Mays\, Peter Collins\, and Henry Segrave have hurtled up the 1\,000 yard\, 1-in-6 gradient track. The start line\, the corners\, the views are essentially the same\, making it the jewel-in-the-crown of hill climbing. In more recent years\, Derek Bell\, Stirling Moss\, Andy Priaulx\, Hans-Joachim Stuck\, and John Surtees have driven the famous Shelsley Walsh tarmac. https://www.shelsleywalsh.com \nBook in Confidence – COVID-19 SECURE\nThe safety and well-being of all visitors to E-type 60 is a priority and although the organizers are mindful that the pandemic situation will\, undoubtedly\, have changed course by June 2021\, they will take whatever precautions necessary to safeguard visitors. \nThe event is registered with Visit England and will take the required action to welcome visitors in line with Government and Public Health England guidelines. The details of the measures will be circulated nearer to the event date.
