About Peter Robinson
Peter Robinson is a life long motor sport enthusiast dating back to the early 1960s. In the late sixties he was a very active rally enthusiast and subsequently took part in his first Motoring News rally in 1970. After a break of many years he re-entered the sport in Historic stage rallies, firstly with a Renault Alpine and then a Lotus Cortina. Both of these were 1965 cars and with the latter he won Class awards and attained top ten results in both UK and Belgian rallies. In 2008 he released his firstbook on rallying, Memory Lanes (a history of the 1970 to 1973 Motoring News Rally Championship) and this year will release a further book on the subject, Memory Lanes.......revisited.
