People not cars this time ;
The Starters / Finishers at work;
a couple of photos unearthed from Dennis Green archives by Ross Cammick ;
The photos were in an envelope marked " January 1978 " and thought to be from aAutocross /Sprint at Ridge Road.
Milan Fistonic notes the following ;
" There was a Bent Sprint run by the Pukekohe Car Club on a grass track in Ridge Road advertised in the NSCC's Club Torque for 26 March 1978. A Closed Club Autocross was run at Peter Hildreth's farm on Kiwitahi Road, Woodhill on 5 March 1978."
Milan also noted there was an " Autocross " at Tom Grace Farm on 8 January 1978.
Rod Peat - in the second photo said that " It was the Sunday before he got married ".
With Tom and Rod doing the starting would seem to be an NSCC event and most likely the 8th of January event at Tom's place;
more to come on this story;
The Boys and Girls running the event with the NSCC Caravan at the back ;
Same Day - same shorts same shirts for Tom and Rod..
There are photos of cars too !!.
Some may follow this post later, once gathered together.
