I am working on a book that needs to include some detailed results data, including classic Porsche Club GB races from the 1980s. I'm having trouble sourcing detailed results for the 1987 Pirelli Production Porsche Championship, and wondered if anyone has access to full results sheets for the following:

Round 1. Silverstone. March 27-28 1987
Round 2. Thruxton. April 19-20 1987
Round 3. Oulton Park. May 3-4 1987
Round 4. Mallory Park. May 24-25 1987
Round 5. Zandvoort. June 6-8 1987
Round 6. Snetterton. June 19-20 1987
Round 7. Castle Combe. July 3-4 1987
Round 8. Brands Hatch. July 24-25 1987
Round 10. Snetterton. August 30-31 1987

I already have:

Round 9. Donington Park. August 16-17 1987
Round 11. Donington Park. September 5-6 1987
Round 12. Brands Hatch. September 26-27 1987

I appreciate that it's a long time ago, but someone might have an archive sitting in the loft somewhere ...

Many thanks.

As you probably know Thumper, Jeff May was coordinating the championship at that time but sadly passed away with the new coordinator being John Farren.

After John, PCGB themselves bought the coordination in house initially with Steve Kevlin and now Mandy and Chris. I would have thought they would retain a copy of the Pirelli results from the late 1980s – both are available via 01608 652 911.

Thanks Stuart. I have had great help from Peter Cook, the Archivist at PCGB, but he admits that the physical records for that period are patchy, and he has no results sheets for the years I'm trying to research. I'll try calling Mandy and Chris, just in case they have something. I also have their email. Thanks for the suggestion.
