interesting Sportscar dates
Hi Folks,
Im after some interesting dates about sportscar racing that i can add to the ten tenths history section that can be seen on the home page of the site. I have a few in there but then i thought why not ask the experts , and when they couldnt be found or were to busy I had to settle for you lot (Joke people ) nah you guys sure know what your on about in here and some dates of interesting things in the world of sportscars would be great to add , so anything you can come up with would be greatly appreciated. so either post them here or send me a PM message if you can think of any , and please make them as accurate as possible as the history file needs to be spot on. CHEERS Marcus |

While we're discussing the history database, is it just me or does it seem like there are a lot of "XXX died on this day" ?
