Real road racing

Sir,
With reference to the article in this month’s issue on the Birmingham road race circuit, I would like to draw your attention to what I think is the last road racing circuit that goes on in these Isles, namely the Phoenix Park Races. (Sept. 11/12). To hear and see a formula II car with its screaming engine echoing through the trees of “the park” is something beautiful. A fabulous true Road Circuit with safety facilities that would shock even D.S.J. You and your readers would be fascinated and if all goes well you could have the same thing in your country too, namely the Birmingham Circuit.
