I dont think Linda grey would quite agree with that one Grunter
George I remember that well , in my view I was on a hot practice lap & the gap narrowed , on that same corner they say the onus is on the passing driver [being me] perhaps I should have read her better , I wont make an excuse for any wrong done ..........but when two cars travelling at same speed the only other thing I can say we would have an inexperienced driver & one a bit better ...results proving the point ..................
Better to say nothing
Steve you are correct but sometimes words are spoken ....we leave it there ..Steve, I met up with your God father to day at Hampton Downs he was there for the H M Cars ...Paul is a lovely humble man ......was very hot there [29] Dale,s class was well put together, also the F5000 geeeee Ken is amazing for his age just gets on with it , also the other classes well put together ..........

Hi Folks
Here is a Mid Eighties photo many may have not seen.
It is from Ohakea, which used to run fairly regularly then for the classics.
Braking at the end of the intermediate straight after the main runway.
That is my(Kevin Gill) Daimler Dart powered Spitfire, John Fendall's TR6 and Bernie Huynen's Valiant powered Healey.
Those were the days!
If anyone else has photos of any of these cars from the time, or more importantly any videos I would be grateful if you could get in touch.
Many cheers
Kevin

Bardahl Series Hillclimb, 1979/80, Bald Hill - run by MG Car Club, myself in the TR4A that did the whole series, almost without incident.
- photo, my own collection, photographer unknown was given to me at the next hillclimb.
Here's a photo of Bernie Huynen in the Valiant Healey at a Otaua Hillclimb
The car has since had a V8 installed, but due to compliance problems it will have a 'sloper' engine refitted.
The car is now up in Northland with its new owner.
