Stock-car racing in the "good old days"
If you or your parents or grandparents remember the golden era
1955-1975 in British stock-car racing, have a look at over 250 photos
and stories on my "nostalgia" website: www.oldstox.com
A few are from the Mendip Raceway over 30 years ago. Those were the
days: the racers were real characters, no-nonsense but full of spirit:
put you into the track fence one minute and lend you all their tools
and a tow home and a beer after the race!
They came from all over the British Ises to race at Mendip, and I hear
that nowadays it's just as fast (but higher-tech.)
Anyway who has stories or old snapshots from that wonderful sport, get
in touch through here or the website, www.oldstox.com
BrrrummBrrummm!
