Happy Birthday rallycross!

@norramot No words for this.
Just he nicest, most considerate, caring and enthusiastic you could wished to meet.
So sad.

Is it just me or does this week’s @MNmotorsport feel more legit just because there are no staples?

[Tim Whittington @MyrioramaTim]

@MNmotorsport In 1968 how did it feel to take your Anglia and mix it with the front runners like Barry Lee, Brian Chatfield, Ron Douglas, Roy Edwards, etc. from your very first rallycross?

@Andrew_Coley @ttracesofficial Rad!

[Tim Whittington @MyrioramaTim]

@Andrew_Coley @dahem0n @HalRidgeRX Hmm
Open stab in the dark without checking, 2017?
But my anorak is not as big as that of @HalRidgeRX so I wait to be corrected.

[Tim Whittington @MyrioramaTim]

Seems like only yesterday you were the new boy on Motoring News ‘Sporting Scene’ pages. Or perhaps the day before yesterday...

A last shout for what must be one of the mega-opportunities of my 25+ (yes, I'm that old and, yes, if only I were younger!) years in journalism - launch editor for our new brand, Move Electric.

Deadline Monday. RT and likes appreciated

Covid restrictions mean there's no #rallycross at @LyddenHill today, so we look back to a historic day for @5NationsBRX on Easter Monday at the Kent Circuit - in 2007 - where Dave Bellerby beat the Supercars with only two-wheel-drive!

Rediscovered this old pic.
Ferrari on right is Tony Dean.
Can anyone identify the Chevrons and the event?
It’s Croft and before May 1969 (the pic appears several times in programmes after this date).
Thanks!

[Tim Whittington @MyrioramaTim]

@Vincenthaas Not sure about those bicycles mate!

[Tim Whittington @MyrioramaTim]

It’s not just the driver!
The World RX team love their bikes too!

@fia @FIAWorldRX The most important line in this is: “The FIA remains committed to ensuring the ongoing success of the Championship.”

[Tim Whittington @MyrioramaTim]

@MattJMNews @MNmotorsport Seems but a blink of the eye since you arrived in the sunlit uplands/grubby corner that was Sporting Scene.

[Tim Whittington @MyrioramaTim]

It’s Höljes Jim, but not as know it.
Quick pre-practice track check today.
Great to be back, but would be better with #WorldRX fans here.

@Jim_Holder Um, perhaps South Wales?
