Tremendous nostalgia with plenty of action from the 'Rebels' days of both Oxford and White City. Many thanks, Steve, glad you enjoyed it. I think many potential customers are probably a little put off when they read in the advert blurb that we've used cine footage but I hope you agree that the quality - considering it's more than 40+ years-old in many cases - is really quite good. Of course, it helps that in those days riders were much more easily extinguished by their personalised leathers rather than the team suits they were today. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tony is there any chance of a 'Memories of Oxford Speedway' DVD in the near future? I have most of the 'Memories of' collection but an Oxford edition would be very much appeciated! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's possible we will put it together - we certainly have enough footage, including lots of home and away cine from the Rebels days of 1974-75. I had thought of combining the footage from 1974-78 and producing a REBELS (Oxford/White City) package but can see how a separate 'Oxford Memories' would appeal. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either would be great speaking personally but I can see an Oxford DVD would perhaps have a wider appeal? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
