    This car followed us part of the way until we pulled over and waved it past. I was somewhat surprised that some of our group had no idea what it was. Later on at Leadfoot, had a chat with the driver - Austin Healey/Jensen Healey driving, Chris White!

    The first of Adam Jones' mini interview videos from the event - Scott Dixon (with a couple of my photographs included!)

    Next up will probably be Neil Tolich

    A very embarrassed Grant Clegg slinks back into the paddock with a bit of Rod Millen's greenery attached to the front left of the BMW... This had caused a slight delay whilst he was extricated from his orienteering expedition.

    Every now and again, you get the right combination of position, colours and light, to make a favourite pic.

    From all accounts, maybe Paul Radisch would have preferred something with even more horsepower.

    There is an obvious link between the next two photographs other than they are both BMWs...

    One of the most impressive performances was that of Rick Bone who hustled his 2 litre Datsun up the hill in fine style.

    Your hint about the 2 Beemers wouldn't have anything to do with (in one case current) driver and navigators way back when? wink

    Who's the Humber 80? Not the ex-Heasley car, is it?

    Paul Stichbury, father of the late Ash Stichbury. Without looking at the programme, no idea of its history.

    Alan must be getting on a bit. I remember him peddling his Triumph Vitesse around the place with great gusto, and wondered just how much work did that car have....a stock Vitesse usually wasn't very....

    If that is the Heasly car, then it's certainly a valuable piece of NZ racing history.
