“When I were a lad…”

No, really, when I were a lad, I used to race off-road up in the North East of England.

Most weekends in the late 80s and early 90s we’d be found at clubs such as Goole, Hull, York, Aire Valley, Batley, Worksop etc etc.

One of the highlights for me was to race on the same tracks as the world’s best racers of the day.  Jamie Booth, Craig Drescher, Rory Cull, names of legend.

My hero was Jamie Booth. Awesome on the track, he’d rock up at 5 minutes before his heat in his VW Scirocco, and show us how it was done.

These days Jamie doesn’t race often – I think he’s raced about 3 times in 2009 – but when he does race, he’s still got the thumbs.

Jamie spends his time running Spire Model Distribution up in Chesterfield.  January 2010 marks it’s 5th birthday.  SMD is the UK distributor for brands such as LRP, Hong Nor and JConcepts.

They’re running a competition in January to celebrate, 5 prizes, one on each Friday.  Take a look at the SMD web site for details of how to enter.

Congratulations Jamie, you’re my hero, you’re my Aero.
