Linton-On-Ouse



A 1.7 mile operational RAF airfield circuit used in 1960 and 1961. The 1960 meeting was held in torrential rain, and the 1961 meeting was marred by the death of a flag marshal. Following the inquest into the death, the venue was no longer available. Drivers Tony Hodgetts and Garth Nicholls then started a safety campaign which resulted in flag marshals standing face to face rather than back to back, a system used to this day.
