Tasman racing 1968.
Here are scenes of the Tasman racing from the Australian races from YouTube.
The last races for the great Jimmy Clark. I can still remember hearing the news of his death in April 1968 on the radio and finding it hard to believe. He was a true champion who could win driving anything.

I would have to agree Ken , was a gentleman as well...I have watched some footage re his racing career etc....... Roly also told me a lot about him.......I also remember the day Dad came into my bedroom early one morning saying " Grant your mate just got killed" as I use to follow him Ernie had bought me a photographed print of him at Indianapolis also a metal model of his car ..the lotus.
