British Championship
The British Championship is the second oldest of the formula's
events dating back to 1971 when Mick Bonner won the title at
White City. The Championship does however have the distinction
of having been run twice in 1977 - once under the guise of 'Speedcars'
at Newton Abbot! That probably makes up for there not being
an event in 1974 - it was scheduled for November at Ipswich
as an all Midget meeting but was cancelled. From the data I
have seen I think it is likely that the title was not contested
in the club's first years, 1975 and 1976 as the championship
was a Spedeworth instigation not originally carried through
at the Club's set up as an indepedent organisation.
