I suspect that the Lotus 7 might be Ray Kaleda...
It's very hard to pick these without programmes etc, but I can see possibilities that the open-wheeler could be the Lynx Peugeot.
The Elfin 600ff might be Richard Knight.
The yellow Charger next to Leo's would be Jim McKeown, I'd think.
My ideas on these:Originally Posted by Steve Holmes
Denis O'Brien Falcon(This Gary Clarke must be an O'Brien fan as every set of photos seems to have him
Frank Gardner Camaro
Bill Fanning Lotus Cortina
Nick Petrilli in Falcon #42. Torana #62 may be Ray Kaleda
Chris Brauer Cortina, isn't it?
No Ray, definitely Fanning.
Have a look in autopics.
Brauer's was normal Lotus Cotins colours, white with green side stripes
Blue and red EH are both driven by Denis O'Brien anf the Falcon wreck is what Denis built his XY race car out of
So we still don't know about the Super 7 or the openwheelers...
Ray as you have said several times you need a programme to identify cars like that.
But doesn't that take the fun out of it?
Surely the enjoyment for posters is seeing how many you can identify from memory.
Yep, I agree! This is a hugely enjoyable thread, and what makes it so much fun are the number of grass-roots race cars included.
The car you suggest is Super Seven looks like a Nota to me and the openwheeler is definitely not the Lynx Peugeot. Looks like a Brabham.
Dale.
The single seater is John Valentin in a Renmax Ford 1.6
If the clubman car is a Nota, as Dale suggests, then it could be Ray Hanger
By the way Ray I cheated and looked up the programme. I hate to do it but it was so you would not have to go to sleep wondering.
Not Ray Hanger, his car had a distinctive nose different to that...
And as far as I know it was always dark-ish blue.
Then there's the FF, any takers on that?
.
Ray you said Richard Knight so I believed you.
Might be, not is.
Its Pat Crea's VW, whether its him driving or not is the question
If not Pat Crea, it could be Darrylyn Huitt...and couldn't she drive that VW.
The Vee, #33, is Godfrey Handschuh in the Bardahl Vee.
And I believe it is highly likely that the red Falcon with the light blue stripe between Goss and Johnson is Gary Wilmington (post #8).
