Great pictures. I well remember sitting in the little grandstand at the hairpin, watching the Kincraft thundering towards me and wondering if it would go right over my head in the event of brake failure.
I never could resist flooring the throttle of my TR3 going down the A11 in the faint hope of keeping up with someone on the other side of the hedge!
I still have a faded photo of me trundling along the old straight in a Jim Russell school Lotus 51.
Fings ain't what they used to be, but then they never were!
