I may be wrong, but I think years ago it used to be something to do with Graham Hill.
Have had some good days there. Well run and has usually an open pit lane so lots of track time. Can be quite hard on tires
though.

Yup I did have some online but we (me and Simon - Chaos999) didnt renew our hosting with the ISP so I think they have finally taken them down

ChrisGamlin - 25/5/05 at 10:24 PM

Sorry, I think Staple Balls was having problems with his FTP so I havent been able to upload them, so you'll have to make do with a low res one on the little bit of space Ive got left on my own webspace here

A tad too late for Billy but if anyone's still interested the Llandow vids can now be found at http://llandow.locostr1.co.uk/, kindly hosted by Staple Balls
