Tarmac – new cars, new paint, new metal, new season

One of BriSCA F1 stock cars top photographers Paul Tully was at this week’s Northampton practice days and shared with us a sneaky peek at some of the F1 stock cars scheduled to be debuting this weekend at Birmingham and Hednesford including the brand new Frankie Wainman jnr (515) tarmac special. Also present were Dave Riley (422) in his new tarmac machine and Tom Harris (84) in his un-signwritten tarmac special. Some familiar machines were also practicing and there was a plethora of Dutch visitors preparing for the weekend.
