This is James Hunt's 1976 World Championship winning car. It never raced at Croft but you could, like this lucky little chap, have your photographs taken sitting in the car for a mere 50p. The lower picture shows James after winning the 1977 British GP. The car is a top of the range British Leyland, Austin Princess.
