UKDRN

Enjoyable 4 mins watching "TC" Tom Christenson in the UK doing a demo burnout and a pass on the 'Hogslayer' Norton. Check out the Interviewer

Wow, that interviewer had some really seriously wild side burns in those days, and that Harris Tweed jacket. Did we all go to work in one of those! I'm guessing 1975/76 at Snetterton for sure as a promo to an NDRC event?

It was certainly shot at Snetterton.
The year was 1974, when TC ran at Silverstone and then Snetterton.
Still had the smaller slick then.

Ive still got a Sunset Motors t shirt bought from T C at the Pod in 1974/5 . Bit tight now though!

Yeah I had one of those too, had it for many years but unfortunatley it died a few years ago. I had a long conversation with T C in 2006 when I was in Gainsville for the AHDRA race. I was in the pits and saw this guy riding around on a norton commando and wearing a sunset motors t shirt and thought to myself I know that guy, it was TC and I met up with him later in the day at the vanson leathers stand and had a long chat.

Here's a shot of TC in action against Keith Parnell's 'Rouge' D class Comp Bike at Snetteron. Must have been an early morning qualifier judging by the absence of people in the background.
