I think the LH Torana in this picture could be the car that John Turner raced around this time It was black,Originally Posted by fullnoise68
Rod, I could be wrong but I think his name was Shane Watson, he had some connection to the Frays and Chevron Sports Cars. I see in one of the other photos, post #448 a green LH Torana about to lap the rotary hoes!, is that Shane Windelburns car that Peter Meadows ploughed into in his Corvette just before the hill at the Grand Prix meeting. Ray (ERC) have you got many photos from that same meeting as that RX3/ Nissan photo, a pink MK1 Escort in the Sports Sedans?
whereas the Windelburn car was a dark gunmetal grey You are correct that the Windelburn Torana suffered
some severe damage as a result of the lack of talent that Peter Meadows displayed at that Grand Prix meeting !
It was also attacked on the startline, at a Pukekohe club circuit meeting, by some of those rotary hoes Rod
Grimwood, of whom many people on here will have now heard of, rectified that situation by administering some
'bush justice' in the pits afterwards, which certainly raised an eyebrow or two
