Description
Changes to regulations for sports car racing in the late 1970s paved the way for a golden era of endurance racing in the '80s with the likes of Porsche, Lancia, Jaguar and Mercedes all vying for the \Vorld Sportscar Championship. The Silverstone 6-Hour and 1000km races became cornerstones of this championship and the event was of ten used by the teams as a warm-up to the all-important Le Mans 24-Hour race, which followed it.
This book charts the progress of the races, year-by-year from 1976, through the Croup C cars era, up to the end of the eighties, with previously unpublished accounts and photographs of each event. It includes maps of the circuit, showing changes over the years, and detailed results from each of the races.
As a spectator, Chas Parker visited all but one of the events over the years, and amassed an impressive collection of colour transparencies taken from the spectator enclosures, the paddock, and during pit lane walkabouts
