A really great website! - thewitch - 24-04-2008 This is practically a history of sidecar racing. Read and enjoy, folks! http://www.hanksracing1.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ RE: A really great website! - T-M - 25-04-2008 thewitch Wrote:This is practically a history of sidecar racing. Read and enjoy, folks! Not much about Freddie Dixon, Cyril Smith, Eric Oliver, Max Deubel, Helmut Fath , Chris Vincent, Fritz Scheidegger, Klaus Enders, Siegfreid Schauzu etc. And many others, but yes, a good website. RE: A really great website! - steve-e - 27-04-2008 If you're interested in racers from that era, you would love Stan Dibben's book. It's not entirely about his career as a passenger, a lot of it is when he was in the Navy in the War, as well as riding works machines for the major British companies as well as roadtesting for them and working on the Bluebird project with Campbell. I'm not on commission either ![]() It's not a cheap paperback, but I would say worth every penny.. everyone keeps borrowing it at meetings and not wanting to give it back. Really, I'm NOT on commission no matter how much it sounds it! I just so enjoyed reading it. Have a look here . . http://www.panther-publishing.dsl.pipex.com/HoldON.html RE: A really great website! - thewitch - 27-04-2008 He really is an amazing character. Thank goodness he was persuaded to write it. I have read half of it and now lent it to a friend in hospital... I hope he remembers to give it back! |
