Thanks for sharing this, great to see F2 racing from this period. Looked like one of those ‘OK’ meetings, nothing spectacular, but brilliant to see the blue top taking the red in the final and then staying in front for the rest of the race.
Was a great fun track. Some fine old names lined up there. Remember once going there and seeing wolfie chase the pace car! Notice no fancy expensive tyres on , run what you got. I'd forgotten how fast Ainsworth was.
I used to finish work in Lincoln at 5pm on a Friday and drive like that up the A1 so I didn't miss a race (only joking).... many happy memories watching the competition between Super Stu, Wolfenden and Wainman to name a few. A million times more exciting than elite monaco grand prix racing.
John got that Crown off me. He only last a few laps before getting run in by a squaddie..... I was the OSH lada at the start of the non ford race... number 81 😊
Good to watch…a very tricky meeting as very little grip available that day….Russel doing what he did best…and yellow flags only when cars roll over or completely block the track…oh and a appearance by fred the infamous tractor driver leading recovery operations…brilliant
Humber Hawks had piss-weak fuel pumps, plus the fuel line was in a bad place, so got crushed. Would reverse up hills, like a Model T, but generally were an OK car. Nicely built!
