I'm researching racing board games (Waddingtons/Parker Bros Formula 1, Formula De, etc..) and am trying to find out information about a gentleman (I'm pretty sure he resided in England) who was making a game called 'Road Ace'.

They way I've heard it, the game had nicely detailed hand-made cars and tracks (famous circuits)...but I don't have any further information...i.e., rules, dates, etc. I was told that the gentleman responsible was in his 70's about ten years ago.

I'd appreciate any information about this game...and would also like to purchase a copy for my collection.

Thanks All!

Has the Adelaide F1 GP board game come up in your sights?

I don't think I have it any more, but it was marketed in 1985 when Adelaide hosted its first world title race. I picked up a copy at a second hand shop...
