England’s Croft Autodrome is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year with a full schedule of events capped by the prestigious mid-summer Nostalgia Weekend. Croft Autodrome hosted its first motor racing event on August 3, 1964, a Daily Mirror Trophy meeting for touring cars, GTs, sports cars, single-seaters and bikes. Exactly half a century later, on August 2-3, 2014, the sights, sounds and smells of yesteryear will be recreated when the Nostalgia Weekend takes over the northeast’s premier motor sport venue.
“This is a big year for Croft Autodrome,” said circuit manager Mike Cantelo, “and to be able to celebrate our 50th birthday on the very same weekend as the first race meeting back in 1964 makes it even more special.”
