Behind Tony Strawson Capri. Is the Yellow car John Turners Skoda? which was sponsored by Skoda GB.
Tony Strawson also raced a Chev Corvair v8.

Hi Andrew, do you have any knowledge or pictures of a 5 litre Skoda built by Bob Leckie in Aberdeen? using McLaren componants.

Said to have been built from parts of his ex-Keith Holland McLaren M10B IIRC. I'd be interested too as I've never seen pictures and have never found mention of it in the press.

Morris Minor anybody?
Found these in an old box of racing pics yesterday. Seems to be the same car but different logo / dates.
Over to you guys....

This shot was taken at the 1975 Silverstone Grand Prix meeting and is David Millington.

Many, many happy memories Andrew. Thanks for these.

I'm trying to remember who took on "Baby Bertha" from Gerry Marshall. She never seemed to go quite as well when she left his care.

Poignant to see a picture of poor Nick Whiting. Always one of my favourites as a child, it was more than a shock when he disappeared.

Yes, it was a shock about Nick. Several years ago now though. Interestingly, Anthony Davidson's father (Dennis) was involved with the Strawson Capri.

I think this may be Arthur Collier. Not certain. Car is entered by Derek McMahon who was Derek Daly's backer in his early days.

This was Alec Poole at the 75 GP at Silverstone. He was on pole (wet practice) but came second behind Gerry M in Big Bertha.
