1951 Fifteenth Annual Daytona Beach A.M.A. Motorcycle Classics Racing Souvenir Program
Welcome to Daytona Beach - Daytona Beach city officials and Volusia County officials join in extending a sincere welcome to the motorcyclists and motorcycle race supporters from all sections of the United States, Canada, Mexico and Cuba attending the annual winter speed classics here this season. For those who attend the beach events annually, the 100-mile amateur and 200-mile expert national championship races are nothing new - They know what to expect - and many of the interesting places to visit while in the Daytona Beach area. But for you newcomers who are making your first visit to Daytona Beach, be sure to visit the many interesting places in this area - and certainly Marineland, located about 35 miles north of Daytona Beach on U.S. Highway AIA. Daytona Beach, as you probably know, is the World's Most Famous Beach - a beach that extends for 24 miles over a stretch that you can drive your car. This extends from the inlet section just below the South turn of the four-mile beach and road cours northward above Ormand. At low tide you can drive 24 miles along the world's greatest beach - one made famous by racing experts with their many types of machines. Racing comes naturally at Daytona Beach. The strand has long been famous for many racing activities - dating back from the days of Sir Malcolm Campbell and all the other international stars who tested their speed machines over the sand. The annual Daytona Beach motorcycle classics have been staged annually, excepting war years, since 1937 - and they have become known as the world's greatest motorcycle races - over the world's most famous beach. So for all you racers and race fans - it's a sincere welcome to Daytona Beach and Volusia County - and here's looking forward to your return in future years.

1953 Vintage Shell X-100 Motor Oil Successes in Motor Racing, Motorcycles & Aviation
Rare 1953 Shell Oil Successes Book on Racing. Introductions by Fergus Anderson and Bill Barugh. Some of the Motorcycle Achievements include Norton at Silverstone, Moto Guzzi at Grand Prix De Nations, Norton at Snetterton, Moto Guzzi at Isle of Man TT, Moto Guzzi at Belgian Grand Prix, Norton at French Grand Prix, Moto Guzzi at Swiss Grand Prix, DKW at Isle of Man TT, Norton at Grand Prix at Monza. Trials and Scrambles include D.O.T. 2 Stroke, Norton Wins Sidecar Trophy. Book size is 5 1/4 by 8 1/4, has 64 pages, printed in England and is in Good Condition.
Almost every major European motoring event in 1953 was won on Shell X-100 Motor Oil.
These pages record only successes gained on Shell Motor Oil in 1953.
Contents: Motor Racing, Hill Climbs, Rallies, Records and Tests, Motorcycle Racing, Trials and Scrambles, Aviation Successes
Foreword: Coronation year will live long in our memories and it will be remembered amongst other things for Britain's achievements. Ther was the conquest of Everst by a British led team, the regaining of the Ashes, the first underwater Atlantic crossing by a submarine and high amongst these in order of merit, the great motoring victories at Le Mans by a team of British Jaguar cars and drivers, in the Monte Carlo Rally by a British car and in the French Grand Prix by a young British driver.
It is significant that in all these motoring events the winning cars were lubricated with Shell X-100 Motor Oil, moreover, that this oil was chosen by the winners of almost every major European motoring event of 1953.
For the second year running Shell X-100 Motor Oil was used by: The World champion driver Alberto Ascari; The B.R.D.C. Gold Star winner, this year Mike Hawthorn; The R.A.C. British Hill Climb Champion, Ken Wharton, and Don Parker who once more became the "Autosport" Formula III Champion, having changed over since last year from a castor-based oil to Shell X-100. In addition, Fergus Anderson used Shell Motor Oil in winning the World's 350cc Motor Cycle Championship.
In demonstrations of all kinds Shell X-100 has proved its superiority, from the 172 mph production Jaguar to the diminutive 49cc Cucciolo which averaged 39.7 mph for 31 hours; by the 8 hp car that came from Rome to London in a day, but above all by the Ferrari team in their succession of Grand Prix victories that have shown them to be the greatest team in the world. Twelve out of the fourteen major European Grand Prix races in 1952 and 1953 have been won by Ferrari on Shell X-100 Motor Oil...
