    Jw - Was a scary time - Chris was OK after and I saw him again racing at Pukekohe in the early 2000's in a Jensen Healey.

    Barry Moon, Reg Whittaker, and BMC BOY Ross Cammick caught up with Chris at Manfield in January along with Frank Karl who was racing - have a photo somewhere of the Lads - which Ross sent to me.

    chatted with Chris weekend before lock down at a swapmeet, he was a motor mechanic at the post office when i was a sparky there and while our interests had different number of wheels as i'm a bike man, we could always get some enjoyment from each other on projects we'd seen in our feilds.

    Telecom Classic MOTORFEST 1993 - the first one.

    A Youtube Clip has been posted about the 1993 Event, by Laurie Brenssell who was the main organiser.

    " Unedited raw footage of the inaugural Telecom Classic Motorfest - 17th & 18th April 1993.
    Features Classic Car Racing, Motorcycles, Scooters and demonstration footage of modern racing machinery. "
    " A big thank you to Graeme Kite for helping to get this up on You Tube
    1994 Telecom Classic Motorfest to follow, plus 50th Anniversary of the Hamilton Car Club
    Regards
    Laurie Brenssell"
    This is from the TVNZ archives,

    Laurie has kindly shared it with others including Digby Paape and Allan Dick the commentators for the event.

    " https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdOE..._EKH9w1mWMY2TA "


    Hope you can all see it from the link - It is One Hours and Sixteen Minutes long.

    I understand that a similar Clip will be assembled on the 1994 event through Laurie's efforts.

    Poster for the first event.

    Search for '4K Video downloader' Bruce. You only need the free version. More effective than the one I paid for (Xilisoft).

    Saves YouTube video files to your PC.

    Great work BRY3500, had heard / read about Videos being out there from Laurie Brensell, one of the organising Committee members - was Chairman I think.

    Just realised it is Laurie's work but when I posted it - didn't work ..oops.
