Mark (smokey mow) Posted February 10, 2013 Posted February 10, 2013 Not a Speed Series Sprint, but I know some of the WSCC members have competed here in previous years, it's a great event which attracts decent crowds and is a unique opportunity to drive this historic circuit. Enties are now open, I've just entered for the Bank Holiday Monday and will be there spectating on the Sunday http://www.motorsportatthepalace.com/index.php/competitors Quote
matt nossiter Posted February 10, 2013 Posted February 10, 2013 My brother is just around the corner in Upper Norwood so will hopefully pop along and spectate Quote
alexander72 Posted February 10, 2013 Posted February 10, 2013 Looks good - shame i will be in Cornwall Quote
peterg Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 I was in France last year when this event was on, I really must get to this one... an F2 meeting at Crystal Palace was the first motor race event I was ever taken to by my parents back in 1967, I was born only a couple of miles away! Quote
Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 I was there with my (then) fiancée when this race was run: http://www.formula2.net/F265_7.htm Look at the entry list and imagine... Quote
KerryS Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 Never been but do remember F2 races shown on TV in b&w, I guess around the time of the results posted above. Quote

Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 He was certainly there Bernie, but I don't recall the details too well. A dog managed to get on to the course at one point but I think that was in the saloon car race. It's all a very long time ago... Quote
Mark (smokey mow) Posted February 15, 2013 Author Posted February 15, 2013 It's barely recognisable now as having been a motor racing circuit, but it's still a pleasure to compete at such an iconic venue I've just had my entry accepted so roll on May :yes: Quote
alexander72 Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Great Vid Mark .... nice one mate.... James Quote
Mark (smokey mow) Posted May 27, 2013 Author Posted May 27, 2013 Well another cracking weekend, sunshine and massive crowds Congrats to Martin Watson for claiming the class 12 win in his Westfield, fending of a strong challenge from Jeff Wiltshire's Phoenix. Best not to say where I came (somewhere near the bottom) but I'm sure the crowds were impressed with my sideways antics and then loosing it on the last run going through the chicane backwards Pics and vids to follow tomorrow Quote
