I remember that Iberia Trophy meeting well - the third race meeting I ever attended as the Palace was a short bus ride from my school on a Saturday afternoon. That was the day Jody Scheckter, Dave Walker and Colin Vandervell had an epic battle in the F3 final, leaving Roger Williamson to pick his way through the last lap wreckage for the win.
I also have a very hazy memory of one of those televised Thruxton meetings - must have been November 1970 - involving Roger Williamson again, in his 1-litre Anglia, starting from the back of a packed grid in pouring rain and coming through to take the win. I'd have paid a lot to see that one again.
