The Roaring Season

There's more than a few cars in that class that I'd be happy to pay $2K for!!! Who do we see to put our bid in?

I agree Nigel. Maybe a couple were allowed in from the BMW Enduro from Saturday, but others were genuine U2K Cup.

Back to one of my all time favourite groups. Front engined Formula Juniors.

Honda Cup

Super lap contenders.






Then the combined grid of Super Six, Minis, Star cars etc. A good mix and far better than 3 or 4 small grids.

Agree with you Ray, Specials are just that ; very " Special ", some very talented engineers and mechanics out there !!

After the rain stopped... Some racing.

Forgot to post this one earlier, as the only Brit FJ (Elva), it was in a different folder prior to final filing.




Inch perfect Nigel!

Nice work again Ray, Thanks for taking time time to share with us.

My pleasure Bruce. Yes, it takes time, but at least it seems to be appreciated.

Now we are effectively in the 'off season', I'm now very busy building up my 'memorabilia and books for sale' web pages, starting with pages specifically for ERA, BRM memorabilia and race programmes. Time to not just declutter, but to make sure stuff goes to a good home and not into a rubbish skip. There is a lot to list so progress is slow.

Still in the early stages, but if anyone is interested:

Last post for a few days...

Back from a short hop to Sydney...











JT points out the Morris Minor bonnet at the rear of Bevan's Morris 8 Special!

The problem with modern sports racing cars is that without a programme, identification is totally reliant on the programme. Never had this problem with Austin Healeys, Triumphs and MGs, not to mention the smaller manufacturers.

One of my favourite saloons of the era.


Yes Roger, you can steal this one of Alan Horner...

Love the shifter Ray from above shot, Its a between the legs shift.
I really like the originality of that car, a real time capsule.
Great shot!
Cheers

A potential ball breaker Paul? I'd want a five point harness...

Back to the Hooters race - and it was a race at the front!
