This book catalogues all the circuit racing, hillclimb and sprint venues in the British Isles and presents summaries of their histories, together with – for the many defunct places – details of what remains of interest to see today. Motorsport has thrived on these islands for over 100 years and this outstanding book – a true labour of love – describes over 800
sites at which competition activity has been traced and provides location information so that readers can discover and visit venues for themselves.
- Detailed description of each venue and what can be found there today.
- Directions for finding each venue, including Ordnance Survey grid references.
- Dates that each site was operational.
- A narrative covering the major events at each venue, records set, drivers and personalities involved and significant cars.
- Where possible, a plan of the course to aid description.
- Over 250 photographs, showing scenes both past and present.
