Found this vid on the Old and Rooted MCC website, from 1959, more than a bit corny, 10 minutes or so long, but stick with it , towards the end there is some short footage of early scrambles and what appears to be short circuit, ya gotta remember that push starts were the norm in 1959,
a roadracing  BSA single, and an early hillclimber, I reckon the film was sponsored by the BSA distributor of the day

Oh yeah , I rode Triumphs back in the day, had the first '59 T120 in Sutho.

Just got off the phone from an old mate of mine, a Dirt Track sidecar guru, who has been following this thread for some time.
He did mention the lack of outfit photos on here

Looks like Kevin Patton must have felt something, very unlike Carl.
Amaroo Park, the same meeting as the 2 shots early on in this topic with Ian Burkett 37, I gather this is where he lost the footrest & brake pedal off my Elstar.
Lucky Kesso was awake.
