That would have been just before it was turned in to a wild life park which meant the end of hill climbs there and shows such as that.

It was organised by Paul Hicks and Clive Lingard.
I think there was a (British Drag Racing)magazine feature done on it.
This has just come in to my possession. Quite a few of those names are still around!

Thanks for posting that show guide Clive, an interesting read, I wonder if that streamlined Mercury dragster ever made it to the strip... Can't say I've ever seen any pics or reports of it running.

here's a pic from the show...
