Hello,

 

I have posted in here previously with fantastic results, so I wonder if anyone might be able to help me with the below.

 

I'm looking for information on the events listed below, copies of programme covers / entry lists / results sheets and the like. I am researching a specific car and driver, and hoping to verify events he competed in.

 

There events are as follows, if anybody has any information on any of them, I would be delighted to hear from you.

 

Many thanks in advance.

 

Tewin Water Speed Trials - 1950 (possible June 18th)

 

Beechwood Park - 1950 (May)

 

Brighton International Speed Trials - 1951

Eastbourne Rally - 1952

Any chance you can let us know which month of the year each event took place in? Also was there only the one event at Westbrook Hay in 1954?

Sadly, the above is the only information I have - they are notes on the back of photographs from events.
