  4. Welcome to Yarmouth folks. It's great to be joining Nic today. This venue was the first place i ever saw stock cars back in 1973. I was on holiday from one seaside resort of Blackpool to this one with my parents. An advert caught our attention and we called in to see Superstox and Saloons. I was hooked immediately. Not realising BriSCA existed i spent the next three years travelling by public transport to all the Spedeworth tracks including Billinghurst which was not easy to get to. At Wimbledon on New Years Day 1976 i experienced F1s for the first time. This was the SCOTA F1s. I was blown away by the noise and size of the cars. A few weeks later on my way to school i saw a John Hillam sticker on a Ford Cortina Mk 2 near my house. I thought that 229 car looks like those i had seen on NYD. Underneath was a sticker advertising Nelson's season opener on March 20th. I caught the bus to Nelson on that day to witness the greatest spectacle i had ever seen. A 60 car three heat bonanza! I had spent 3 years watching down south when i could have seen so much more closer to home! The rest is history with many enjoyable years spent with all the wonderful people that make up the oval racing family 👍
