Having posted the piece about Thruxton, I thought I would
"google" it.

I fopund the following on the Southampton and District Motorcycle club
website.

It would seem that the 1958 event was the first as the "500 miler" which
is probably why we went!

It makes interesting reading.

Just have a look at the names in the 1958 results!!
One SMB Hailwood, the legendary Bob Mac AND the timeless Percy Tait!
Quite a lineup and I ah almost forgotten.
So, I must have seen Bob mac race much earlier than I first thought.
By the way, where is Percy tait now?
