New Books on the British Hillclimb championship

A new record of the British Hillclimb Championship 1947 to 2018 has been published by Jerry Sturman and the Formula One Register. In 2 volumes splitting at 2000, both over 350 pages
More info and Orders http://www.formulaoneregister.com

It is reviewed in the latest issue of Speedscene -
"As an unrivalled work of reference, these two volumes are a must for the historian and die- hard enthusiast alike. As a comprehensive summary of the British Hillclimb Championship it is, and will probably remain, unique."

Each season begins with a brief preamble which highlights any significant changes to drivers, cars and sponsors. Every round of the championship is reported in a few paragraphs followed by the Top 12 results, which have chassis numbers for most cars from ERA to OMS, including much information not available anywhere else. A final championship table, showing scores by round and driver completes the entry for the year. There are no photographs, but there are course maps for every venue visited and there are two comprehensive indexes – by driver and by car and individual chassis number.

This is a limited print run and not available from booksellers but is stocked at Prescott & Shelsley shops
