Blogging
Some of the older and more sensible articles have
found a new home on our Blog site, to make them easier to find we
have included some links below in the highly unlikely event that
you'll want to read them for a second time. I find "Blogging"
a bit difficult and never get things how I think they should look.
Just the stox stuff is listed below and the date it moved it there
not the date they were created, confused? told you I had issues
with this bit of the web, oh yes they open in a new window.
Didn't they used to race Stockcars? (7/08)
This all started by accident when we decided not
to go to Buxton for the F2's on Sunday July 27th 2008 and go to
Donnington Park for the “Truck Attack” meeting instead.
First of all it was a great day out, the sun shone all day (no really
it did) and the racing was top notch on most of the formulas on
offer. If anything we'd gone to see the Legends but that wasn't
where this the surprise of the day appeared.
Next day I went to “www.pickuptruckracing.com”
to find out a little bit more and got the strange feeling a name
rang a bell, in fact 4 bells ;#6 Rob Butterfield,#14 Damien Carr
,#93 Michael Smith & #66 Martin Heath all ex BriSCA F1
drivers appeared. Next up was #22 Nic Grindrod ,#39 Karl Turner,
& #66 Martin Heath agian all had been involved in BriSCA F2's
at some point. http://pickuptruckracing.com/drivers.phtml
is the place to find out a bit more about these drivers. On to the
Legends and we find yet more BriSCA accociations #16
Richard Pocklington had some connection with the F2's via his
brother and farther (although his actual racing credentials I'm
unsure about). You can read a little more on his webpage www.rapidmotorsport.co.uk.
#32
Peter Morton had a 20 year involvment with the F1's and according
to the info available won Novice of the Year in 1980. Last but by
no means least and perhaps with the most interesting connection
to BriSCA is #85
Iain Holden, Iain raced in BriSCA F2 Stock Cars in a spare car
belonging to none other than Rob Speak which Iain seems to have
driven for a single season, but Iain's involvement doesn't end there
as he races #85, it seems Iain was a good friend and mechanic to
Ray Tyldesley.
(Addition July 28th 2008) Thanks to "Trev"
(member of Stoxnet) who informs us "#5 John Mickel was one
of the biggest names in F2's in the 1990s" looking at Johns
Career History it looks like John was also a big name in Legends
to.
(Addition July 29th 2008) More of them, this
time on the Rebels webpage, currently "Rebbling" but having
driven in other formulas are ;

"Noddys Bus" Mick Noden 306 (May 2007)
Spotted on eBay and posted on Stoxnet for us all to
see in May 2007 a tiny bit of stock car history went up for sale
the HARRINGTON AEC COACH RACE CAR TRANSPORTER (1965) that was once
owned by Mick Noden 306. Noddy was a good driver and one of the
drivers I always looked out for so if for no one else but me I decided
to add it to my blog.
The ebay blurb went like this; We bought this 2 years ago for our
stock car and it served us well a few times until we bought a newer
one.It is a harrington conversion.It is now out of mot/plate it
passed ok the last time though and has only done a couple of thousand
miles since.
It starts and runs well it has a 6 speed box which is easy to use.
The inside is tatty and could do with updating it has a cooker and
a couple of bunks and some seats but it could all do with ripping
out and the inside of a caravan putting in. (cheap option)
The outside is covered in dirt and moss as it has been sitting for
10 months unused but it cleans up ok.Ideal for your stock car or
race car or motorcross
You can call me on (number removed)
She is advertised locally for £2000 and the reserve is set
less.
You must collect it within 5 days if you win and you must be from
the uk with 8 good feedback or more.You must send a £200 deposit
to my paypal account to show your commitment before we arrange collection,this
is a strict policy I cannot change as there are lots of idiots on
ebay.
We can deliver it at 99p per mile
