Norman Hodges was a stalwart of Special Saloons throughout the 70s. He had previously driven a MkI Escort FVC sponsored by All Car Equip with great success. By the time this photo was taken, only these silhouette type cars were winning the bigger classes and most drivers had moved over to them.

Skoda S110RS Coupe
Engine: Ford Cosworth BDG 1789cc
Configuration: mid-engine
Driver: Chris Meek
Class: Special Saloons, 1301 - 2500cc
Date taken: 1974 at Chicane, Croft
Designed by Ray Jessop, this was one of the most standard looking Skodas to race. Chris Meek did have some success in its development year but sold it to Alec Poole for the 1975 season. Alec Poole had a great deal of success in the 1975 Super Saloon Championships and came second to Gerry Marshall and Baby Bertha.
