Talk:Derek Minter

Derek Minter Straight at Brands Hatch racing circuit
I have added prose for Portobello Straight being renamed as Derek Minter Straight (presumably during the 1960s) at Brands Hatch racing circuit.

I also added citation needed in the hope that an editor may notice and be able to provide a reliable source, although it is a matter of public knowledge (appearing on the Wikipedia page circuit diagram, for example) therefore does not need attribution, it should be verifiable in print somewhere.

I have been unable to confirm a date for the renaming, and the present circuit operator - Motor Sport Vision - no longer show the stretch of track as named on their site diagram, neither is there any relevant historical info.

They have failed to respond to an email query (16 July 2013) requesting historical detail and clarification of the current (2013) situation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rocknrollmancer (talk • contribs) 12:51, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Birth place
I have corrected the recent unsourced change which stated Littlebourne and added a reliable source. Please note there was a WP article for the village of Ickham (permalink) which was vaguely absorbed into Ickham and Well some years after merge was mooted. I don't have any opinion on the suitability of the Category shewn in this change.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 18:48, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
