Unread post by Eric Needham »

Came across some old paddock photos a while ago and thought they might be of some interest.One from Brands Hatch 1968 and two from Oulton Park around 1970.

WHAT is the engine in that last one?

The one from 68, dad might have been passengering there with Mossy :) in fact, I'd say number 27 could be him, the chair wheel looks oddly familiar ( I know that seems strange, but there's a photo on the wall at mum's that I've seen a million times)

Hi Steve.I'd copied some of the names onto the back of the photo from the programme and according to that 27 is Edward Elliott/Chis Emmins.I've still got the programme from the meeting(it was the Brands v Mallory National races) so I'll have a look later on and see if your dad was there.
The other photo is an 875cc Impala ?? ridden by J.Boardman.Perhaps someone else can shed some light on that.
