That brings back memories,I used to go there regularly with Les Clark in the late 70's. I didn't see any pics of 'Spotty' though,unfortunately I can't remember his real name.

just seen me dad ted allan 114 thanks 4 posting

[stockcarcowdie]

@jamesallan01 Thanks for the message. There's 2 small pics of his car on my website. Can you tell me where he lived back then? My site's "drivers" page is missing a "location" for Ted. Couldn't find him listed in any of our old programmes. Also looking for a mugshot of him or any other pictures of his car from this period if you have any.

[maccalou]

I was raised on the stock cars lol - do you have pics of Malcolm Watt, hot rods from the 70's??

[stockcarcowdie]

@maccalou Don't believe I do, probably a few years before we started going. Google didn't turn up much about him either.

[jamesallan01]
