On two wheels


Recommended Posts

Been sorting out some stuff from the 70s and 80s for another book collaboration; this was the first time that Golf (Rabbit) GTis raced at Oulton Park; the car had not been launched in the UK yet, hence the LHD.

Both VWs came to grief in the race; the other one in a major fashion. I like the relaxed look on the Mini driver's face. :)

Great shot. There's just enough space between the front mini and the golf. Everything in focus - spot on. I presume you were standing trackside as one often did in thise days. Shame that at many circuits, one is pushed back by armco and run-off ares.

Charlie, Azzo,

Thanks; I had a Press pass but in those days was limited to 18cm lens. This was probably the last race meeting where I was hampered by antique Leica rangefinder and lenses; I soon discovered Pentax SLRs and much longer lenses; a whole new world. :)
