Unfortunately at Goodwood it appears that the ex Bob Jane Lotus Cortina was destroyed. No doubt it will be repaired but how much will remain of the original car will be interesting to see.
Not exactly ideal conditions for Formula 5000 racing !
Scott O'Donnell from Christchurch driving the Begg FM5/2
Mike Sidgwick driving the Trojan T101 / 103 that Jody Scheckter had driven in 1973.
I can remember the rush at Trojan Racing to get this car finished in time to make the North American L&M F5000 Series, April 1973.

Here you are Steve. 1963 Marina Rolls Royce. Unfortunately, as I wasn't there for either practice or the race 2009 (one of the other problems is the schedule - the cars that practice last on the Friday night, are also the last to race on the Sunday night, which is terrible scheduling, especially as the same groups are so affected every year), so no action pics. First is 2004 at the Festival of Speed and the second is at the Revival 2009.
This year, I have decided that even if I have to have a nana nap during the day, then join the long queue to escape, I'm determined to see the cars I usually miss.

Thanks Ray, great photos and nice looking car. By coincidence, I was reading my latest issue of Historic Motor Racing News last night and the 1964 Attila Chevrolet pictured alongside in your bottom photo was being advertised for auction. Another quirky early Group 7 car.
