Holden Monaro

[Leo D]

The Chris Brauer incident occured at the Lakeside round of the 1970 ATCC.

Yes, Bob's 3rd Mustang that we are talking about did leave Australia.

As to the exact dates for Bob's Monaro shots, I'm not exactly sure of those at the moment.

As to Norm's colour schemes, they go as follows...... "Neptune Racing Team", Blue with White stripes.... this runs through to the Chevy Nova.... The neptune Team becomes the "Tridents Racing Team", the colour scheme changes to Black with a Yellow and Red stripe combo... we're still with the Nova at this stage.... "Tridents Racing Team" then changes colour scheme to "Electric Blue" retaining the Yellow and Red stripes.... Norm then aquires the HK Monaro, which at first appears in the standard Holden Yellow with the black stripe.... the other Tridents cars in the Electric Blue scheme..... the HK is eventually painted in the same Electirc Blue, Yellow and Red stripe combo.

For 1970, the team changes to the "Shell Racing Team"..... Yellow cars with Red stripes...

Here is another of Rays shots at Calder.... Allan Moffats first run there in the Mustang.... Norm leading from Pete Geoghegan and Allan Moffat... The Moffat Mustang ended up with a large dent in the bonnet after he gave Norm a serve in the first corner of one of the races..



This is the first round of the 1970 ATCC at Calder, which was won by Allan Moffat.... Norm DNF'd



Of course, there are alway the pictures of Norm's Chevy Nova..... my personal favourite of his cars....
