Title: Birmingham Super Prix to be revived??
Post by: Steve TTTD on October 31, 2003, 03:51:19 pm
I know nothing about this apart from the E-Mail and website, but having seen a race in the 1980's I'd love to see it revived.
I received this E-Mail out of the blue today
Gets my support.
Wouldn't if be good to see the European Le Mans series there?

Hello,
As you previously entered a competition run by Birmingham101with a motorsport theme or have had previous contact with us regarding motorsport, we thought you may be interested to know that we are in the process of trying to get a major motor racing event run on the streets of Birmingham along the lines of the old Birmingham Super Prix of the late 1980's. The plans are now taking shape and we are getting a lot of support from right across the board. We have put more details along with some photos and video clips of the old event on a dedicated web site on http://www.birminghamsuperprix.com where you can find out more. If you get chance please check this out. The more feedback and support we get the better as it gives us a stronger case to put to all the necessary authorities. Thanks for your time and I hope you like the idea.
Regards

I've seen the Motorsport News reports as well. Looks very promising. Would be great to see top national racing, and hopfully some international events too.

Did anyone go to the old events in Brum? A good atmosphere and event by all accounts?

Remember James Hunts brother (david?) having a crash and putting a hole in someones wall withh his engine!
Shame the one year it was run in a rainstorm, a few good years of weather and it would probably still be here.
