Jerry, John & Peter We all seem to be chasing the Racing History of our ACs ( plus one Daimler 250)
Please find attached copy of recent emails with
Martin Krejci of Racing Sports Cars , as we all appreciate most of the people who really can help are enthusiasts like you and I.
Too save overloading Martin, I have copied this email to Tony Bancroft & Tim Isles who both have lots of racing results, the Idea being that 1950s & 1960s results can be supplied & published without too much inconvenience to Martin, which hopefully in turn leads to Others contributing more data over the next year or so ...[:p]
Maybe just maybe we learn more on our Aces and Possibly re-establish contact with some of the Aces that have slipped off the radar.
Please find Martins email below.

Hello Keith,
Thank you for the link and for your interest. I have added some race results I found there, including the Abbotsford races. The one result I have had before from Shelton was also confirmed by you to be this car.
Maybe I will add more races in the future as I have the results. For me it is always more effective to add full results for a particular race meeting than to add car by car throughout races the individually. I tried to add some listed in a tabular form but generally it is very time consuming and I could spent months over the AC forum, I think ļ.
I have now got another update of AC chassis number from another owner, so it is nice and I hope to be able to add more AC-Bristol chassis in the future, as well as to collect more complete race results. Unfortunately, since the mid-60s the coverage of lower classes is reduced on my website as the car started to disappear from the major races and to follow various Sprites, old Triumphs, Abarths, etc. in all depth into the 70s would be impossible for me alone. I hope the scope of the website is satisfactory for the ACOC Members despite these limitations (also rallies and hillclimbs are excluded from the listings).
Best regards & Happy New Year.
Martin
