I think you could easily end up in the naughty room if we had one.......along with me.

Very sad, just read the news.
Never got to see him on the roadsides in the 80`s which was a pity.

A real shame,not much older than me. Used to enjoy watching him racing Sytner BMWs in the BTCC back in the eighties,he was super-agressive and not bad,but he had a terrible habit of wiping out his team mate (and BOSS!) Frank Sytner, Sytner regularly refered to him as Mike Bloody Smith in post race interviews. The fun carried on monday mornings when Smith told the story from his point of view on his Radio One breakfast show,sometimes you could hear the pent up frustration in his voice as he desperately tried not to say anything derogatory about his guvnor! 59 is a fairly short innings but I think he probably had a pretty good life,lets face it ,it cant have been bad waking up with Sarah Greene for 25 years! RIP Mike
