save the old stories
ATTENTION, THIS IS A IMPORTANT PROJECT!!!
Interview former racing drivers, mechanics, team owners, photographers & other witnesses.
They have experienced great times and know things,we don't know. The best are videos or audios of the interviews.
These guys passed away this year:
●Sir John Surtees (†83)
●Preston Henn (†76)
●Sir John Whitmore (†79)
●Timo Mäkinen (†79)
●Patrick Nève (†67)
●Dave Steele (†47)
●Gavin Ramsay (†53)
●Eric Broadley (†88)
But you Don't have to post it now, put it in books, websites, archives or YouTube, where we can find it in some years.
We can process the information in 20 years, but we can't talk to the people in 20 years.
Please contact them, ask them. Take their awesome & unique knowledge for the fans outside here.
If this wouldn't happen, people who want to know more about this time, can only use the Internet, but not everything is there & there're also wrong info's.
Use #storiesofoldracing on the social platforms. There we can save the info's.
PLEASE SHARE & REPOST THIS! TELL IT TO OTHERS.
Save the great paddock stories.

Great. I posted already on Instagram, but it got less attention.

Hey @Jacob, Roy Moore replied to my fb post as soon as I shared it.
I'll share & tag Manxradios Mountain Memories podcasts soon with Roy telling stories from the TT, GP and S100 from long ago in my fb.
Btw, does anyone know how to find the link to one of your own posts? - I don't seem to be able to get it.
Else I`d have shared it here, too
