Hot Rod World Final 1981

[@audspod1]

Ormond's first of five World Championships, so privileged to have been there. 1981, 1983, 1985 then 1996 and 1997. Sadly Ormond passed away on 11th October 2019. So proud of my big brother Ormond and all his achievements on the track.

Great ERA mate you should be proud, saw him many times at Hednesford

[@audspod1]

So glad I was there to see Ormond win the first of his five World titles, perhaps never to be repeated!

Was there in the grandstands watching the racing all weekend, the best year of hot rod racing. This inspired me to buy what I have in my garage now, a Escort MK2 RS2000 ❤

Remember watching Ormond and Dave Evans racing the bit out at Ballymena race way in northern Ireland when I was young child. What fun. RIP Dave Evans

[@angelsone-five7912]

Great stuff but I do wish the film people would remember that there are more competitors than just the leaders.
