I always went to Exeter to see the Falcons race having Ivan Mauger and Scot Autrey in the same team and racing on a banked circuit. Oh those were the days. Thanks for sharing this video.
Yep……those were the days Stan.Racing on a knife edge ! Great to see Chris Morton and Peter Collins in action.Lived in Manchester around that time, so hardly ever missed a meeting at Hyde Road.Thanks to Martyn for bringing us this.
Have you got any footage of Australian sidecars racing at Wembley back in the sixties doing a demonstration ride with the rider's coming up from Cornwall
I Martin great stuff. do you have any old speedway info. my great uncle raced at White City Salford before WW2 I think possibly the 20's just starting out trying to find if there is anything. Thanks Mick
Awesome, I went to the Shay in Halifax in the early 70's aged 13 on the bus to watch "The Dukes",,?! ha ha, great days, Is speedway back at Odsal these days?, I see the F1 stock cars are back.
The government and the BBC committed a criminal act when white city was destroyed how this place was allowed to be bulldozed is disgusting when it was the finest example of a art deco building along with it's historical significance athletics football greyhound racing speedway
