A feast of motorsport nostalgia from Scotland from the last 100 years, which will appeal to all motorsport enthusiasts in the country.
Scotland has a rich heritage when it comes to motorsport. Some of the most successful competitors of all time hail from Scotland with such names as World Formula 1 champions Jim Clark and Sir Jackie Stewart, as well as fellow F1 ace David Coulthard, World Rally champion Colin McRae, multiple TT winner and British Superbike champion Steve Hislop, Touring Car legends John Cleland and Gordon Shedden, Le Mans 24 Hours winner Allan McNish, wife of F1 boss Toto Wolff, Susie Wolff, Indy 500 winner Dario Franchitti, decorated Olympic cyclist and part-time racer Sir Chris Hoy and land speed world record holder Richard Noble amongst others. The Scottish Six Days Trial (SSDT) has run since 1909 around Ben Nevis, and the Rest and be Thankful Hillclimb in Argyll started even earlier in 1906. Historic old tracks include Beveridge Park, Charterhall and Ingliston, and the burgeoning Knockhill circuit which recently celebrated its 50th anniversary and the gruelling Scottish Rally Championship is held annually on a variety of courses throughout the country.
Delving through archives, Larry Carter has unearthed a fascinating collection of the most memorable motor sporting events and achievements of the last 100 years in Scotland which will appeal to all motorsport enthusiasts in the country.
