The Neptune Team normally ran with #2 for Manton, #3 for McKeown and #4 for Beechey at all circuits except Warwick Farm.Originally Posted by Milan Fistonic
This is an entry list from the Warwick Farm meeting on 5 December 1965. The numbers don't match but it does show the three Neptune Racing Team cars.
You can see from the above that it numbered strictly down the page in order. Only the unlucky #13 was omitted.
If there was a Division 2 race the numbers continued from Division 1. Not that they really liked Division 2 races.
It was no place for favourite numbers. You had to have a good supply of peel off numbers.
It was very "pukka" and English, the influence of Geoff Sykes. It was not for nothing it was called "Aintree Down Under".
