This is a photo I took at a park in Horsham, Sussex on Whit Monday, 1951 of grasstrack racing where the machines were towing surfboard riders.
As I have never seen this activity either before or since, I wondered whether Mortons Archive contains any similar records and whether it still takes place at grasstrack meetings these days?
