    Interesting pics Roger. I can't identify the track in the grid pics, but one or two well known cars there.

    Not Mallory Park, Silverstone or Goodwood. The Esso bridge may be a clue. The Lotus has a Derby registration and from memory, I think the Healey is West Midlands. (Just checked. Warwick = Healey country!) The D Types look as though they might be Ecurie Ecosse (Scottish registration). The XK 120 is Norwich. I'll have a Google... My first guess? Snetterton? Never been.

    Five minutes of Googling brought up this pic from Snetterton September 1962 - the beginning of the Autosport 3 hour race. Team Elite Lotus ahead on the left.

    The rickety Esso bridge visible but I don't think it was there much later than 1962/63.
