The Roaring Season

Can spot the Rothmans Cooper and Riley's Lotus 18/21.

They were going too fast for me
I could have got a few of the saloons with a bit of effort
I suspect there might have been a production saloon race in there somewhere?

David ,I will go back and have another look at it ,I found it very hard to ascertain who was who and I had to go on ,a lot of it from memory of that day and as we all know that is getting a bit dim at times

How did you get on with the single-seaters?

I will have to check and see if I still have the notes I made ,the big red coupe was a chap by the name of Ibbotson from New Plymouth ,the film is not very clear even when viewed slowly ,the Anglia is I believe one of our Silver Fern racing team cars from that year,I will try and have another look when time allows

is that a Fiat 850 passing the Imp

Great work Bob..Anyone we might know

I did a actually go through this one time just about frame by frame and identified I believe a lot of the cars and some of the folks in it ,I think it was taken by a Taranaki person perhaps because there appeared to be a lot of focus on some of the cars from that era
