#ShellSport - Twitter Hashtag

over 1 year ago

In ’70, 2 Aussie lads arrived in the UK, seeking racing glory. One, Alan Jones, became ’80 #F1 world champion. The other, Brian McGuire, born #OnThisDay in ’45, died in practice for a #Shellsport race at Brands in ’77. Pic: the tone of such reports was different back then. (1/2)

28 Sep 1975 #ShellSport had arranged the old Grovewood Security hospitality suite with a FREE Bar to celebrate in. A decision, they would regret on the Monday !! Lol. All the other Vee competitors and mechanics joined after the race in there and a great few hours was had by all.

@DaykinRon1956 @DailyMirror Please credit me with a modicum of motorsport knowledge. It was a #Shellsport race, as I said in my original tweet. #F1 cars were among the Shellsport fields, alongside other single-seaters such as #F2, #F5000 & #FAtlantic cars.
