I remember the race, but not the place

Who can tell me the location of this track.

I remember Andy Ruffell's pedal destroying my back wheel in one of the motos, thats why I have odd wheels in the first two pictures.





50 bonus points if you can spot spectator johnny Hearn  ;)

The action is from 1987 if that helps? Think it was a Pro race put on by a club rather than a national event.

Paul, is the bottom pic at the same meeting? Noticed that you have the sticker missing from the bottom of your plate in the last pic.

90% sure it's the same meeting. I noticed the missing sticker when I was grouping the pictures. The last pic with me leading Tim was in the first moto, I hade chrome UKIA rims, the jump we are going over was just before the final berm. My rear wheel got shredded before the finals and I replaced it with my old red ARAYA 7X, I guess I got the sticker on the day some time after the first moto.
