Where, when and who?
« on: 25 December 2009, 22:47:39 »
Got a negative/slide scanner as a Christmas present and have had great time playing with it. I found this old negative in the cupboard.



The quality is poor (think it must have been taken with an Instamatic  ;) ), but the questions are:

1) Where was it taken?
2) In what year?
3) Who are the drivers?

Come on you smart-Alecs!  :P

I know the Mk1 Eccy replaced the Bangle in 1968 F reg. but this could've been taken some years later.

Question 2: 1971
Question 3: I think it was Dave Brodie in the Escort and Chris Craft in the Anglia (but I'm not 100% on that).

I was at a Brands meeting when Chris Craft drove this beast (Supervan 1). Never seen a crowd move back so fast when it appeared round the corner at Druids!   :o  ;D

I rcognised the track (and which part of it ),no idea on the driver,guessing early 70,s for when it was taken ?
I should have a great collection of slides from the circuit of Ireland rally 1979 -Chevettes/escorts/TR7V8/Lancia Stratos/Fiat 131 to name a few,I left them with a mate in Ireland years ago and every time I see him he says he hasnt got them. :(
