PLEASE NOTE:
All photographs on this website are my copyright therefore
please DO NOT download the pics without seeking my agreement first.
I am willing to help out by providing my 'oldies' pics for use on
other websites but it doesn't hurt to ask first. Not too much to ask
is it? |

This site used to be
known as the Stock Car Racing Archive Photo Album - a name
which I have long felt needed replacing with something a bit more
"snappy" - excuse the pun please - hence the birth of Retro Stox!
I took the photographs from the late 1960's to the early 1990's,
either from the terraces and stands as a spectator or from the
infield during my spells as an official photographer and even
if the pics were well before your time, hopefully you'll still take
some enjoyment from the collection.
I am currently working
on a new look for the site so you won't have to put up with the
garish orange and black colour scheme for much longer! Having said
that, the new version might be just as sore on the eyes!
All the pics were taken
on good old 35mm film and I wish I had a quid for every hour I spent
in the confines of a cramped darkroom, inhaling the noxious fumes
from photographic chemicals and doing my eyes no good whatsoever by
working in the dim glow of an orange safelight! Oh to have had the
convenience of digital photography back then! The negatives and
slides I've used on this site have been brought into the digital age
with the help of a Nikon film scanner - a wonderful invention.
Wherever possible I
have captioned the photos with the year, driver(s) involved and the
track, however please allow me the occasional lapse if my memory or
filing system has let me down!
You are welcome to
email me with any queries or corrections.
I hope you enjoy the
site - please come back soon. |

MUG SHOTS is just what
it says on the tin - a page devoted to pics of drivers minus the crash helmets. Most
of them are race winner, prizegiving type shots but it's interesting to
remind ourselves of how they looked all those years ago - especially
those who are still racing today!
