Does anyone have a magazine featuring the race report from this event? I assume Motor Action as Motorman didn't do much race coverage by this stage. I'm after the BNSW races if anyone can help?

Steve, The only " MotorAction " I have is the 19th April 1974 Edition # 20 [ cost 40 cents ] which had the Bay Park Easter Event ; 2 and 1/2 pages of words and photos.

Hi,

I am also chasing the results from the Dec 1974 Bay Park meet where Allan Moffat raced his Mustang in the Union Travel colours, if you would be able to help me I would greatly appreciate it.

By chance would you also have the results for his races at Wigram on Jan 19th 1975, I can only find out the results for one race where he started on pole and finished 5th.

Kind Regards,

Peter (Moff9)

Moff9 - Peter,

I can ask Graham Woods or Bob Homewood, both of whom have huge archives of Programmes and Results, - just now have sent a request off.
- also Milan Fistonic a TRS member has a lot of information on events ..

Just for interest here is a brief - very brief summary of Baypark events over the years.

Thank you Roger and Graham. Maybe there was only one race at Wigram, not two.

What happened to Bay Park ?

Moffat did two races at Wigram in 1975. As you know he finished fifth in the first race. In the second he retired after 10 laps with a puncture and an oil leak.
