Default 1993 Off-road Worlds Basildon Programme

I bought this programme a while ago, but i know very little about it. Does anyone know if it was produced by the host club for the worlds? And was it sold at the event to the spectators?



It is basically lists competitors, racers to watch, timetables for races and has a few adverts etc.

Paul.

I bought one as a spectator at the event.

No idea who produced it though. Can't find it anywhere now which is a shame as I got it signed by Masami & Joel Johnson

This from a few years prior but an interesting read nonetheless.

I'll get the programme scanned when i get a chance. I wish mine was signed, there's a page at the back for autographs. I've often thought that i should try and get the some of the attending drivers to sign it for me

Smile Worlds 93 - basildon

Hi - I believe this was produced by the club who ran the event called TEMAC.

Me an my friends volunteered to help at the event. We all raced at local buggy clubs and were recruited to volunteer Marshall, prepare the track and carry out some security duties. This was a small price considering we got access to watch and meet some of our hobbies greatest from all four corners of the world.

As a reward me and my mates got to attend the closing dinner which was held in a marquee on the site. This was where the main trophies were awarded and we thought we had hit the big time!

Very happy memories.

I think the best memory I have is that we had the best seats in front of race control/rostrum to see the A finals and we had been tasked with collecting the cars straight after the race to take to scrutineering. This gave us an opportunity it's for a quick snap with the winning cars.

It was one of those hot summers you remember from your childhood and an event which lives long in my memory.

I think I even make it I to the video I a few places.

Cool looking back on it.

Nice memories..

Hot summers....gosh I remember those when I was young. Seems hard to imagine given current weather.

Here's a few pics of the contents.

What surprised me the most was just how few UK drivers were racing at the event
