Because we'd got in free and the grass was getting hard i suggested going in the grandstand so somebody went and asked , it was over 35 years ago so I could be wrong but I think it was £100 each so we stayed on the grassI was there too. My mates dad was one of the ‘bigwigs’ at Central Mosque. Watched it from there. Was brilliant.

But manic really. Racing, fixing cars, a week looking after the in-laws and a week holiday in Northumberland. Silverstone this weekend which is looking like a bit of a nightmare to be honest but we’ll see.What you been up to Tim hope you're having a good Summer

How’s the Jaaaaag?
Birmingham born and bred mate. I will have you know we have non of that here. What you are referring to are known as Brummies. Lol. It has got a lot worse round by the circuit now. The homeless people play chicken run with the traffic but they seemed to have moved away the windscreen washing ladies. Inner city turf wars.We did a feature on the Birmingham Superprix for Modern Classics. Involved shooting an M3 and an RS500 around the circuit route at 3/5am on a Sunday morning (so still Saturday night).
Aside from the drunks, addicts, homeless, weirdos, most memorably I nearly got goaded into a fight in a petrol station.
My favourite story from the Superprix days is that the local prostitutes were upset at the loss of tradeBirmingham born and bred mate. I will have you know we have non of that here.

They were literally sitting in the windows practically across the road (Cheddar Road) from the circuit. It was like Amsterdam on that road. I had a business not far from there (a Nursing Home) on the Pershore Rd. Feckless Birmingham City Council should have made the pit stop on Cheddar Road instead of Bristol Street Motors. Birmingham would have had the greatest road race ever. Monaco No thanks.My favourite story from the Superprix days is that the local prostitutes were upset at the loss of trade
