They had it listed in the programme as a "D.W.K"

Great photos Milan, I think maybe Shell and Dunlop were helping out the southern team. They certainly had Dunlop R5/6 tyres which were worth a few seconds.
Again thanks for very special photos!

The shirtless one bending down into Clark's cockpit would be Ray Parsons, would it not?

Milan, think that would be Birdwood Road so a few years before they went to Cosseys, would it be 1963 or 1964.
Also I would like to place the Roy Harrington photo on the " NSCC the Early Years " thread. Bob Homewood posted an extract from Club Torque of the Birdwood Hill Climb some time ago.

Definitely Birdwood Rd, used to race there in 1983/84

When I see these great photos of Milan's, it reminds me of how Jim Clark enjoyed his time in NZ.
He raced hard but also had fun such as in this photo from Graham Gauld's book "Jim Clark. Portrait of a Great Driver."
He was possibly a guest of Tony Shelly's, who lived just up the road from this bay at Lake Taupo.

(Just a quick p.s. Who might that be leaning on the Lotus in # 10 series that shows Bruce McLaren and Phil Hill ?
