This is my UK fix, has been for 30+ years!

When I move to Calis am I going to be entertained anywhere within 200 miles or so with this kind of motor sport or will it be the good old internet & a sniff of my Castrol R aftershave for my fix?

coming from Poole, I was in to speedway, now watch it on Sky Sports:D but I also spent many a happy afternoon at Matchams Raceway watching stock cars and banger racing

Just wait at the Migros traffic lights at sunset during ramandan, you'll see plenty stock car style activity

i used to race and marshal at the Oval raceway in worthing... But half the cars i used to race are worth a fortune here...! An old 80's sierra is about 10000tl...!!!

I started my racing career there in 197? Dave Longhurst, John Button & I in A40's, blimey that takes me back! I then moved onto Bangers at both Worthing & Warnham under Roy Fays guidance before he moved to Smallfield.

Now I'm an active spectator & photographer for a few websites, just got back from my annual Skeggy pilgrimage, Brisca F1's, F2's & 2 ltr saloons, heaven on a racetrack!

PS: LOL @ Scunners comment, can well believe that too!
