Issue three of Oval Track Classic Magazine is out now and features a two page look at one of the UK’s most versatile racing drivers, David Oates.  David started his racing career on the short ovals and that’s what the magazine deals with, the classic days of the sport.  “It was David’s son Jamie who inspired the article,” says the magazine’s editor, Richard John Neil.  “He sent me a race programme from 1980 which included David’s profile and I thought it would be nice to reprint it along with David’s answers to the questions as they stand now, some thirty years later.  David has featured in several of my short oval books so it was nice to continue the trend and include him in the magazine.”

The magazine looks at racing in days gone by as well as featuring current classic car racing on the short ovals and can be purchased online at www.ovaltrack.co.uk
