Richard Powell writes: "I am spearheading the revival of a pre war race track at Syston Park near Grantham,in Lincolnshire. In 1926 Syston Park created the first road trrack race cicrcuit in Britain. One of our Aims is to bring together cars and motorcycles that would have taken part in the original event. We are consulting with the MSA at the moment to see the type of event we can hold on the existing track. I think at the very least, they will allow us to do demonstration runs and then as the event builds we would like to run a competitive speed trial or sprint. As well as the original track, less than 1/2 mile away, is a nice race track on RAF Barkston Heath. It is a very exciting project and from the response we have had so far, we are delighted with the number and quality of the responders. If you are interested in meeting up for a chat, we are holding a small launch party on 20th September to tell everybody about what our plans are for the track and as importantly speak with owners and enthusiasts and members of the press. This date does clash with Angouleme for some people, but if you are free we would love to see you."
