Sep 2, 2001 · Early Autocourse - posted in TNFs Archive: Before becoming an annual publication, autocourse was a magazine. First published in 1951, it was at first quarterly, later bi-monthly and then monthly. I have a collection up to 1955, and they are really good, including complete lap charts with times of such diverse events as the San Remo Grand Prix and the Le Mans 24 hours as well as the World Championship events. My reason for posting this is to ask whether anybody has any experience of it...
