Going to be fun watching the 6ft 2" Gordon squeeziing into a car designed for Ryan who is a little more vertically challenged😊 I guess modifications to Pedal positions and Seat must be underway.

The Chairmans comments in the programme do make refernce to some fans being stuck in the past😄

KL often do scrutineering on the infield, this would provide a view of a few cars for those arriving early.

There is some footage of the meeting final on Binns515 channel on youtube, Rochdale track surface looking immaculate.

Now thats a pic of what Giant would no doubt call " proper stock car racing" but not so much as an ounce of that dirty brown slurry in sight. BTW 97WF, help me out, is that the one where FWJ leads 53 by miles when his engine goes sick, or the one where FWJ leads by miles and a backmarker leaps out of the home straight plating

Needs some clarity on start time as Incarace website and here says 1.30 in text but 1pm on the poster.

The preview page on Incarace site has been updated, the prices above are available on the day at the turnstiles.

Have you seen any 53 fans loitering near your lorry recently? there are no moral boundaries when it comes to getting their man a place on the starting grid.

Whats my chances of getting in then? I don't even know where the list of reserves is? I think i was about 5th. You are listed as 5th reserve on Startrax website behind 5,348,93, and 11, however the ultimate sacrifice may be required as number 6 on the list is car 53.

If you charge per person then its open to abuse as car of 4 drop two persons off 50 mtr from the entrance and only pay for 2 to camp. To prevent this the whole camping area would havr to be secured and patrolled just adding loads of expense.

If Tesco Morrisons and Asda had a concensus on how much to charge for a tin of beans then this would be anti competitive or maybe even a Cartel. Nothing wrong with promoters competing now and again. Perhaps when they do not have enough cars for a proper F1 meeting they could consider a more attractive pricing policy.

Mini stox have been moved to a later date due to lack of pit space.

I have that meeting down as Monday 27th December, with Sheffield the next day on the 28th. Carl - Appreciate you adding me as an acknowledgment, but could I make one slight amendment please? Coud you take out the .co in the website name Thanks Yes but in the 70,s when xmas day was saturday then boxing day was very much the monday as football, horse racing and big retail were not allowed on sundays.

You appear to have omiited boxing day 1976 from your list. Approx 68 cars appeared at Hyde road, my first ever visit to Belle Vue. Not an ideal first date as the track was like a bog and only 5 races were run, SuperStu strapped on some mega treaded JCB type tyre for the final and won without breaking sweat. Mick Noden was not in attendence.

45 Loonz plus 90-100 F1, job done.
