Formula Atlantic/Pacific

[Malcolm McLeod]

If a car was sponsored by a cigarette company in period, its allowed to wear that livery today. There have been some exceptions, I seem to recall a few years ago some old Holden Dealer Team cars doing demonstration laps at either Bathurst or another event, had to cover up the Marlboro lettering. Quite ridiculous really.

As I understand it, they can run in livery for NATIONAL meetings, but not for INTERNATIONAL meetings, eg Bathurst or Austrailian Grand Prix.
The bluring out of the tobacco sponsors on OLD footage shown on Bathurst tv coverage in recent times is complete b#llsh!t as far as I am concerned.
It is so pleasant to see the Winfield and Peter Jackson names on the works Nissans this weekend at Sandown...even though the weather is wintery and not what I came prepared for...but that's another thread.

I thought I might upload a few more Formula Pacific photos from my collection that I have been working on recently. This lot was taken at Manfield and most of these shots have never been printed previously.
Hope they bring back a few memories.
