Could this be the car that crashed at Firle? Does anybody know any more?
An advertisement in Motor Sport, September 1967, Page 873 refers to "Maurice Fallek's 1895 c.c. Lotus Elan with Martin Ford Engine" - he is believed to have raced a Chevron-BMW later. Can anybody pin down the date of the crash at Firle which ended racing at the venue?
