Photos: The Allan Cameron Collection - Part 2

[Steve Holmes]

This opening batch of photos are from the 1970 B&H 500 event, but this is not the B&H 500 race. Pictured is a support race for production touring cars. These are cars available in New Zealand, but not NZ assembled, such as the Falcon GT-HOs, Holden Monaros etc. This is moments after the start, as the field streams through the left hand dog-leg that is no longer used.

The Red Falcon GT in the photo is the Greymouth Mptors car of Jim Kennedy that I was responsible for looking after back at that time ,this was before it got its upgrade before the Southern series of the same year

OK, moving now to the 1971 B&H event, and this is from the Golden 100 race that preceded the B&H race. The Golden 100 required only 3 examples be imported into NZ to be eligible. The race was won by Richard Brocklehurst in a Torana XU1. This is another of the XU1's, possibly the Roy Harrington car.
