Just seen this thread for the first time. Thought I should have a copy as a former local boy.

Local boy's book in the post #195
You will recognise every road....just imagine how they were 40 years ago.

Cool period shot from Snetterton circa 1965
Scotsman Eric Liddell's brand new GT40 #1022 which achieved great success in club racing.
Eric died in 2011

Dad and I had the opportunity to buy one of these in the early 70s

Oh yes, now that you mention it there's a car in this picture.

Mine arrived the other day and I read it cover to cover last night. What a fantastic read! I'm not sure whether I enjoyed the stories of the cars or the women more...

It's lovely to read about somebody who enjoys their life to the full and makes time for fun.

Looking forward to volume II.

Best Wishes

Interesting photo I took at the Snetterton European Touring car race in 1966
The Alan Mann entered Lotus Cortina driven to victory by Sir John Whitmore
He beat the Alfas and BMWs.
John was our guest speaker in 2005 and auctioneer in 2008. A really intense guy who sadly is not well.

I am going to find out who is sitting on the bonnet!
