I have already posted several pics on my thread from the 1994 meeting. But, they are well scattered. At least 23 pics.

" there must be someone out there that has a photo of the Fogg Cooper S upside down on the corner leading into the Seddon road straight.
It had glanced one of the big earthmover tyres and flipped during a passing manoeuvre.........would be very interested to see it. "
Gerald Fogg wrote that they haven't seen a picture of the accident but this is loading the car on the trailer afterwards. He also commented that it took 16 years to have the car rebuilt and back on a track

I have to say he apologised profusely to me when he arrived back at the pit.......but I forgave him.......well what else could I do ?........and he paid for all the repair. Was the first festival at HD, the Bruce McLaren that was the catalyst to get it back on the track 16 years after the incident. We are taking her to the South Island in January....Levels and Skope so that should be a bit of fun........probably travelling down with Gordon and the Alfetta so the two cars can swap stories.

In the Issue will be the story of the Telecom Classic Motorfest events of 1993 and 1994 - The article has been written by Laurie Brenssell - who was the Chairman of the organising committee.
Should be a good article.

as Laurie says " Remember the Telecom Classic Motorfest? We travel back to Hamilton in the early '90s to look back at this event in our upcoming edition. Were you there? ".
Looking forward to the issue being published. Issue #86..
Issue #87 is due out December ..
