From the Editor...

With a particularly good National Weekend behind us, the big news now is that we have a date and a venue for next year’s event and it’s going to be a big one because we will be celebrating the JDC’s 70th anniversary at the home of British motorsport – Brooklands. Many of you will remember the amazing 1500-car turnout we had for our Swallow-Jaguar centenary a few years ago and, hopefully, this will be an event to match it. We already have a team in place and planning has begun, so keep an eye on your magazine for full details, coming soon.
