Check the early Formula A cars at Bay Park.
I had a question; what is the green sports car at about the 40 second mark and who is driving the white Imp ?

Ken, never had an Imp, was a Mini boy at the time 67-68 and then 71-74 .. would have been at Pukekohe then, maybe not at Baypark .. great footage ..
