The Roaring Season

I have a copy of this. It is a well produced book and well worthwhile adding it to any book case.

I think this whole Pit to car communication has got way out of hand. I have no problem with data loggers that can be anylised after the race but it is OTT when a pit can tell a driver where he is slow. The claim of Safety is just rubbish, if that were the case then the only real issue would be ...

At Vince's place in Whanganui, And I am guessing 1973,74

It is hard to turn up to an event if you do not know it is on. the recent Legends of speed up north. I didnt know it was on.

Are these the Lighting Direct cars # 9, 11, & 16?

I have pictures of these , just need to scan them.

Too many I say, Every new class is just a field reducer to some other existing class. Sooner or later we will end up with 150 classes, and only two cars in each class. At least that way an entrant will have a 50/50 chance of getting a win. We need classes that the punters want to see, Bums on seats ...

The last time I spoke to Vince he said he thought the car was still in the Manawatu area.

I have a couple of colour slides somewhere. I will get these scaned when I find them.

From memory it has a 2.3 SOHC Vauxhall motor with twin side drafts and not a lot else done to it. The meeting I saw it at the owner was going well and was only just second to a TVR Tuscan. Not bad for an all wooden chassis which I am lead to believe is rated to 350hp. I believe still is rather than ...

Is this the Wellington based Costin that reced several times in the then Whittakers classics at Manfield?

Please be very careful with what you ask for in regards to voting. There are clubs affiliated to MSNZ with sufficient numbers who could if they wanted hijack, the whole shooting box if it came to 1 vote per member, or at least make things extremly difficult.
