Storm Automotive’s crew, the Raceworks Division, planned to make quite an entrance.
The sound of the Mamba’s roaring V12 shattered the silence as it screamed toward the show, all four tires throwing smoke as it closed in on the event, 6 liters of twin-turbocharged fury making an entrance.
As the Mamba was left to cool down from the drive here, another car could be heard making its way there. The raspy snarl of a carburetted four cylinder, which really could only mean one car. Soon, the deep blue paint of the 1955 Prince could be seen, propelled forward by the trusty old 1 liter Inline 4 engine. Perhaps the most interesting thing about the Prince was that this time, it wasn’t wearing show-car Antique plates, but standard ones.
Luke stepped out of the Prince, then said, “We’ve come to Goodwood’s Festival of Speed for two reasons. The first is to see how fast the Mamba can go up the hill climb, and the second is to push the old Prince to the limit and see how far we’ve come.”
With the short announcement made, the Mamba was lined up for the hill climb, and took off with fury.
(Unfortunately for everyone here, I don’t have any skill with photo-editing, so this will have to do.)
After the Mamba had returned from the hill climb, the Prince was lined up, and left at a more refined and expected pace.
With the two runs logged in, the Storm Raceworks Division headed off to their designated area to discuss potential future plans for Goodwood. There was definitely some discussion about possibly bringing a 2017 Shadow or the upcoming 2018 Solara Multi-Fuel Hybrid, though.
