Talk of Rex i need a contact if you have one. Cheers


Hi Rod, I emailed Pat a of few years ago but can't find that address.





I was thinking it looks a bit like a mk1 escort but with box type flares.

Rod, if you get hold of Rex ask him about this pic as he was pretty happy that Carl had caught the action.

Rex would not mind, and thats why i need to contact him as he will have a container full of photos, and information.

Known him a little while, he still holds the Rally car lap record of Baypark, V8 Chevette. I believe he has the original car back. He is in Aussie.

I thought something from 1964 would have taken a little longer to answer, especially correctly.There were 2 Aislabie's in the results that day.

And the "what" is the ART Special (which might have been the BMC Special that day...)

The caption with the photo says it is the BMC special, for obvious reasons I excluded the text.

Wasn't this racing at the Roycroft festival as the BMC special. Went damn well. Could have been a look alike though.

Jamie, Seem to remember you in a similar sitting position in another car a few years later on front straight Puke when it rained and you got the BIG aquaplane on down front straight before the old pit road crossing and away she went, down track over start line and it looked slow motion (but was not) from were we stood and went for ages down the track-grass-then the wooden fence. Don't know how you felt, but i sH!& myself.
