EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time to October 1st, 1977, as we witness an extraordinary sight captured by Neville Chadwick. In the underground car park of the Woolco Complex near Leicester, members of The L. A. Cruisers Club gather for a thrilling event - The Barstool Grand Prix. Leicester's petrolheads have ingeniously transformed their humble pub barstools into electric-powered racing machines. This remarkable invention combines science and technology with leisurely pursuits, offering a glimpse into what the future may hold for motoring enthusiasts. As these custom-built barstools line up on the starting grid, anticipation fills the air. Each competitor eagerly awaits the green flag to unleash their modified creations onto a makeshift track within this concrete labyrinth. The photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also showcases how human ingenuity can transform everyday objects into vehicles of excitement and competition. These pioneers demonstrate that even ordinary items like barstools can be repurposed to fulfill our need for speed. Neville Chadwick's lens immortalizes this unique blend of innovation and camaraderie among these racers from yesteryears. It serves as a reminder that throughout history, humans have always sought new ways to push boundaries and explore uncharted territories – whether it be through technological advancements or simply finding joy in friendly races down dimly lit parking lots.
