While reading this page I was thinking, gee this is set out the same as the old speedway site I go to, the I look at the bottom and there is Brian Darby's name.
Brian has done so much for bringing the old Motorsport photos, it really is a credit to him and the time he puts into collecting the memories.

Thats ok.
I'll have to ask Brian to put the page from Surfers Paradise Raceway back up on the web. He had heaps of pics from the early 80s V8 taxis racing there, mostly the commondoors though.
