knockhill 89 race bike pics

[ricalnic]

I'd appreciate any feedback on these photos. Recently found them in the archives in the loft. I suspect that they are from '89 ? I know they are from Knockhill Racing Circuit, Fife, Scotland. from a time for a couple of years where the British Championship actually visited Scotland.
It would be great to see them north of the border again.


































I'll post up those I suspect from '90 once scanned & edited.

Number 21 i think is Martin Cook's Group 4,could be wrong on that one that though.
47 could be his Group 6 ridden by someone else but im not really sure on either.
Then you have Dave Websters Group 4 and 6,im pretty sure his Group 3 and 5 were yellow.
Chris Brelsford ended up with Webbos Group 4
Then a couple of Norrie Kerrs SS90's
Number 4 is Malc Andersons Group 4,very good rider he worked at MSC a lad called Paddy from Leicester bought it and raced it.
Jem Booth's Group 4 and his sidecar outfit,Andrew Sharkey bought the Group 4 cant remember the lads name who got the sidecar but the passenger always reminded me of Peter Kay.
I think number 6 is Rob Miller,not too sure on that but if it is ive got the panels hanging on my garage wall.
Then the Kegra bikes,the yellow one No.23 might be the disc valve 150 that went like stink,the black one is Group 4 both of which were ridden by Keith Terry if memory serves me correct.
96 and 97 were PM Tuning ridden by Paul Melici (spelling) and someone else!
Sidecar 134 is Stuart Days,passenger was Nigel Burnside (i think) we called him Birdy now co owner of Birtoni scooters in Colchester
I stand to be corrected on any of the above though!
Peter Hinsley would know for definate,he got an encyclopedic knowledge!
