Hi Bigears.
I was present at ALL the Birmingham Super Prix - and I have the badges to prove it!
Brian Jones was the main commentator in a wooden shed on top of the porta-cabins at Bristol Street Motors where the "pits" (haha) were located. I was his lap-charter and 'gopher'.
The first year it rained a bit (!!!!) and you had to see the sparks that came off the monitors - no windows in the shed you see. I still have the mildewed lapchart for the only race to take place.
The next year it was warm (!!) and we roasted - because now we had windows.
But mainly I remember the evenings in the Hotel after the Races - well actually I don't!!
