    A challenge to you old race car enthusiasts

    A friend of mine collects old cameras he recently purchased one containing film
    When he developed the film these photos were found
    Pop quiz can you help me identify the cars ( and bikes ) if possible the location of the event(s) and the year
    Any super stars go for drivers as well.
    Good luck
    Starter car 14 if I'm not mistaken is a Ferrari 250lm produced 1963-66
    Maybe some Lola T70s or Elva's in there !!!!

    Wow what a find! Brilliant cars - from a time when cars were mechanical machines not like todays everything controlled by computer things.

      Hi bike, 7 looks to me like a 1950s Manx Norton, as for the cars as you say possibly Ferraris Cheers Chris

        Did they have fairings like these in the 1950s? - I'd say its more likely 1963/4/5.

          Esso golden fuel was early 60,s

          The car pics with the spectators at the top of the bank look a lot like Druids at Brands Hatch.

          Wonderful old pics surprised the film held up after all those years.
