Race circuit books

[graeme]

I see there's a new Mallory Park book, which I guess I'll look into buying. What other circuits have books on them? I've got Combe, Thruxton and Oulton (well, the first one at least - can't afford the second...). I'd snap up a Cadwell one, particular for some old photos of the place.

Should you wish to vicariously travel afar there are books on Sebring, Daytona and probably other historic tracks in the US.

PM for details.

For old photos [and modern] you can't beat Derek Lawson's Oulton Park History "Sun Rain and even Snow" There are loads of photos from the original building work through the early races, upto modern day. There is a brief report on every car race meeting from day one.
Derek has published a sequel, which is entirely photos and it is -imaginitively -called "More Sun, More Rain and Even More Snow"
Derek is a regular marshal at Oulton and can be contacted at dereklawson@ntlworld.com

For Aintree, try "The Unfulfilled Dream" The author is Tony Bagnall by tfm Publishing Ltd
