Thumbs up Some Racing Nostalgia for some of us old gits

As i've been a massive motorsport fan since i was about 12, i thought i'd post a few photos from my collection which i thought were quite evocative images.
I've sifted through hundreds of negatives/slides and period photos that i've collected over the years. Some of the below are an interesting comparison of some familiar circuits to us Skyline owners, and some of just some familiar faces.
Just thought i'd post something different for once. Too much RB overload lately.
Enjoy!! (all the photos are copyright to their respective owners and labelled as such and should be respected accordingly). I have to put that as the motorsport world take their copyrights very seriously.
