Where is the disrespect in that? Not only power to weight, probably skill too. Last week it was Anne Thompsons granddaughter driving down Millen Mountain.
FJs? They have excuses like SFOS having given them too much racing!!!!!!!
So who eventually won the Roycroft Trophy?
I departed after the second red flag so didn't see the race.
You didn't miss a lot! Lawrie Poolman "won". Sad outcome for the car involved though and detracted from the meeting a huge amount. Thankfully cars can be repaired and no injury whatever.
Thanks for the photos guys, the point about power to weight ratio is well exhibited!
What car was damaged - and where?
Interesting comment Roger, given that most of us would rather see a large entry of varied cars than just three or four classes. FJ's are in the true spririt of this sort of meeting and I really can't believe that there are some people who object to a grid of FJs.
I presume that it is the generosity of Hampton Downs that supports this two day meeting? There is no way the normal costs would be recovered by an entry and entry fee of that size - which is far more suited to a one day meeting.
Like the painted on numbers Rhys. I have a couple of tins of signwriter's paint in the garage rescued from the days before that terrible vinyl stuff that either pulls off your new paint, or curls up and falls off when the backing gets wet...

Lycoming, turn 1 partway thru the final race.
I don't know where this about the FJs comes from. Their "co-ordinator" certainly knew about the desire to have the pre 61 cars there.
They say timing is everything and after a faultless run all weekend my little Buckler Mk5 finally said enough as we were getting it off the trailer at home and the SU fuel pump stopped functioning. Luckily it didnt do it when Peter was threading through the field to second place in the Roycroft Trophy. A knock with the handle of a screw driver failed to bring it to life so it looks like a rebuild.
Nigel if you have any pics of that little blue no 45 we would love to see them.
Sorry GeeBeeNZ but I don't have any shots of No. 45 this year.

[QUOTE=Powder;26752]Not quite up to Nigel's standard, but it's better than nothing.
