Neil Tolich three wheeling the Mustang.

This LVVTA approved machine looked to be interesting.

This car followed us part of the way until we pulled over and waved it past. I was somewhat surprised that some of our group had no idea what it was. Later on at Leadfoot, had a chat with the driver - Austin Healey/Jensen Healey driving, Chris White!

A very embarrassed Grant Clegg slinks back into the paddock with a bit of Rod Millen's greenery attached to the front left of the BMW... This had caused a slight delay whilst he was extricated from his orienteering expedition.

Every now and again, you get the right combination of position, colours and light, to make a favourite pic.

From all accounts, maybe Paul Radisch would have preferred something with even more horsepower.

There is an obvious link between the next two photographs other than they are both BMWs...

One of the most impressive performances was that of Rick Bone who hustled his 2 litre Datsun up the hill in fine style.

Your hint about the 2 Beemers wouldn't have anything to do with (in one case current) driver and navigators way back when? wink

Paul Adams?

Paul Adams?

[ERC]

Yup. Spot on. And the link then to #844/4 is?

Who's the Humber 80? Not the ex-Heasley car, is it?

Paul Stichbury, father of the late Ash Stichbury. Without looking at the programme, no idea of its history.

Yes it is.

Allan Woolf, father of Sue Adams, Pauls wife

Alan must be getting on a bit. I remember him peddling his Triumph Vitesse around the place with great gusto, and wondered just how much work did that car have....a stock Vitesse usually wasn't very....

If that is the Heasly car, then it's certainly a valuable piece of NZ racing history.

[SPman]

bump steer with a beam axle that would be worth a watch. think you mean buggered shock absorbers

You mean......they had shock absorbers..................

I did not say they worked though

Batch 10

Probably the only real grizzle I have about the event is the programme. Someone needs to proof read it thoroughly as even though I have only really skimmed through it, there are far too many errors. According to the programme this 2015 UCM has a 14.25 litre engine and is fitted with a 4 speed Darracq gearbox and at 100mph, is doing 1650rpm.... I'm not sure what 'breaks' it is fitted with .

Racing Ray Williams first time out in the ex-Tolich Perana "Bodie", merely showed that the controversial twin grooved tyres don't cope with a damp track. Ray wanted to have a run at Hampton Downs on week 2 of the Porsche Festival (he is a paid up ERC driver) but was far too busy helping with the organisation.

It's that man again...

The lovely Riley Moth. I kept missing it as I was distracted talking to people when I should have been concentrating on the track!

Yes Ray, you are right. The entrants submit the info for the programme and it sems to be printed without editing. Shame that car comes from a University team

I think the Darracq's info got transposed Rhys... Can't blame the students for that particular error.
