The A30, IIRC there was one Ford powered & one with Truimph 2000 power anyone know more?
The Torana/XU-1 behind the Hammond x Crosbie/Simpson? Escort could be Peter 'bloody' Kocis (spl?)
All this stuff is not good for me.. If you wanted a wide rim..you made it... roll cage..make it...flare a wheel arch...just cut the inner out,weld it on the outside...fill in the gaps....Hell OSCA even paid prize money per event & then a bonus at season end on points earned during the season... Now what happens, pay a big entry fee, sign your life away in case you hurt someone, pay a fine if some turkey sitting 'on high' deems you were not far enough forward to actually pass...throw away perfectly good crash hats & belts every couple of years...dont even think about making your own wheels or roll cage, just be a good boy now and even though you can see the gaps in the welds of your MSNZ certified cage made by an 'expert', that little scrap of paper & the photos will stop it falling around your ears..use this fuel-yep we know its quality drops off after a couple of weeks, wont matter if your pistons melt, BTW, get the noise down a bit will you... Oh, and the prize money etc...we got over that..the new unwritten rule is that entertainers pay to do so in the name of progress...
