Didn't Gerry Marshall win the last ever race there (in a Lister Jaguar)?

Going back in memory , I also raced at Aintree , [ probably 1970s ].
It had a full GP circuit , but that had its last race in 1964 , and continued with a club circuit until about 1982 . Now only track days and possibly M/C racing . So that is another one gone . |

One other name I recall is a circuit that I never raced at, and that is Longridge. However, just found two other circuits that I can't remember ever hearing of, and they are Davidstow and Ibsley, both former RAF airfields.
