How marvellous to hear from Gavin Booth's son.
The Silverstone crash between Gavin, Dave Matthews and Dave Brodie was huge and made the daily papers.
I saw the cars in the scrutineering bay afterwards and they were totally destroyed.
The Matthews Capri had the engine sticking almost vertically out of the bonnet whilst all else was completely destroyed.
Dave Brodies Escort was about 2/3rds of its original length and fire damaged.
The Booth Mini looked unsurvivable, hence the rumour the the driver did not survive for long.
I seem to remember an article in Motorsport magazine, "Lunch with and Dave Brodie" and Dave was seeking news after the Gavin. Hopefully someone can pass on the good news that rumours of Gavin's passing were incorrect.
More news from Holykalel would be welcome.
