    The Elbow or Stables bend as it was sometimes called was an interesting and for some folks a challenging corner. Down the front straight full noise and turning right under brakes and trying to set up for a sharp left hander. Loved that corner.

    Allan, didn't do me any favours one day, as racing [ a sprint event 2 x 2 x 2 etc, set off at intervals - on the track ] an MGB in my TR4A, I selected first coming out of Elbow, hit the throttle, caught some loose metal and did a 360 while the MG raced away, never caught him.
