Those were the days... Donington 1982

Post by The Spin Doctor »

The picture quality is awful, the racing is a bit processional, but the quality of the field is unbelievable... and Rocket Ron is on something rather interesting too.

I only wish I could remember if I was there - I saw a lot of races around that period.

Depending on what month of the year it was, I may not even have been born.

This also came up on my YT feed a few days ago.

I've watched a few races from 80, 81 and 82 last few nights.

Good to see Bazzer in full flow :)
