As a change from the monthly Crossword Puzzle , and being the right devious bastard that I am , I have compiled a fairly taxing quiz on motorsport  of all various types through the ages . So on with your thinking caps , consume copious amounts of alcohol to stimulate grey matter activity , and set your minds to answering as many of the following questions as you can. The quiz covers Formula One, Touring Car, Rallying, Leman`s Sports Cars, Indy Car and details pertinent to various racing circuits.
For those that feel totally desperate and have to cheat , the answers can be found elsewhere in this magazine section. Don't come crawling to me at the next club meeting telling  me it was too bloody hard, blame Nigel , He insists that all my previous efforts were far to easy for him, SO , blame Nigel and kick him in the wedding tackle if you have to vent your frustration on someone or something . …..Ed
