The Roaring Season

[quote="Milan Fistonic"]Being on a dial-up connection I can't view the coverage but from the programme Anglias were driven by:

23 M Sexton, 31 T Nagle, 56 D Simpson, 61 T Eve, 57 B Faloon, 88 C Hogan, 75 J Richards.[/quote]

This was one of gthe Anglias at the 1965 Paritutu meeting - it had a big argument
- " Dave Juries Anglia -after he was forced to swerve when Hogans Allardette [ C M Morrie Hogan ] was pushed across the track in front of him. It was his first outing in this car after wrecking his last one at Pukekohe "
.. and as J L Lawton asks -
" Who remembers the TV Programme " Car 54 where are you ? "

Then after the US trip Robbie had the spelling of his name officially changed cos nobody could say it properly, or so we were told at the time.

Anyone have any ideas on who is driving the Anglias?

Ah! The memories!

Great footage..not sure about the commentators rendition of Robbies name tho ;)
