I like it when you get to see some different era photographs, some may have been hidden for years and come to be available now.

The first one id seen before (appears to be brands hatch pit lane, but going in the wrong direction) and on a bike with "Streamline" dealer advertising, but not John's one with taveri.

Looks like they went for a lap too from following photo

Also another view of just Hailwood on the bike

Not a good resolution but cool photo, might be Pat Hennen driving, followed by Peter Williams and Paul Smart, unsure of last one. I know the front one too.

Anyone know who is sitting backwards on the front mudguard for a bonus point  ;D ?

I think its Dave Aldana on the back, with his skeleton leathers.
