No, I live in the U.K We used to go every year as kids though, it was always fun to watch except for some of the horrific crashes at times. We grew up with Bikes as my dad had his own Bike shop as well as racing them.

Did you go to brands hatch with your dad,?and did he know bikes like the volocete viper,and douglas dragonfly,and the honda 400 four,??

I went to most places, possibly brands hatch. I don't remember all of them as I was quite young for some of it. I can't ask him about remembering the bikes as he passed away years ago.
I do remember the bike I used to love when it was on display in the shop, a 1986 Suzuki GSX R750. I used to just climb up and sit on it, wishing I was bigger so I could ride it!

Nicam

no need to apologise, people live and people die, fact of life :)
I used to have a mini scrambler and rode some moto-cross events (but only if my mother wasn't present!)
I didn't really know many other dealers, only those we traded with at our small shop in Bristol.
