Early Knockhill

For anyone interested in a bit of nostalgia, I've added an album of photos of Knockhill in its infancy.
The photos date from 1975 which is Knockhills 2nd season of operation, things have changed, just a little!

Looks like the weather was better 32 years ago!

Great pics I've never seen Knockhill back in the olden days. It's pretty shocking looking to be honest! But I guess a lot of the things were the safety standards of those days.

I think I first went there in about 79/80 to watch rallycross. Could get as close to the loose stuff as you dared - or until the marshals noticed. Pruty basic place back then.

yup, that background gives me a headache, couldny really look at the pics for long.

Anyway, memory plays funny tricks, the rallycross I remember at Knochill was as recent as 82!
