I don't know if any of you are interested. But on the 2nd May, its my car clubs 60th anniversay. Here is a layout of the event, and my BRM is representing 1999. My dad's MG ZR 1800 Rally Car is for 2002.
Info:
WHEELS vs. WINGS
Bank Holiday Monday 2nd May 2011
At Kimberley Hall, Wymondham
Celebrating 60 years of the Sporting Car Club of Norfolk
Re-enacting a race from over 60 years ago
The Sporting Car Club of Norfolk was formed by eight founder members in 1951. Around that time Johnny Wodehouse, the 4th Earl of Kimberley, bet his friend Matthew Banks that he could beat him in a race from Kimberley to Newmarket Racecourse. Johnny drove his new 110mph Healey sports car and Matthew flew his Auster light aircraft ....... and the car won!
SCCON is re-enacting the race in reverse - from Newmarket to Kimberley Hall, ending with a big get-together open to everyone, so please come along:
