    Regards post#38. Steve that was a well used HO when Norris got it. He also had a left hand drive German 3ltr Capri it was white with green down side, he raced a couple of times in the GTX class and then had Rod Millen drive it, and he sure shocked a few. Remember at Wigram 2 wheeling it everwhere at high speed. Not sure but Rod may have won class that year. Any one got photos of this car.

    A late 70s photo I took at Amaroo Park - always a full program and a good day of racing back then.

    What became of that Capri?

    That does not look a very user friendly piece of wood sticking up out of the corner. Definitely stop kerb jumping

    That would have been one of the under 3 litre races at Amaroo. There was a series held at Amaroo for under 3 litre cars. Barry Seton and the late Peter Hopwood off the front row.

    I was in the pits also when Geoff had that little mishap. I knew Geoff well and I had worked on that car. There is a photo around somewhere of the car standing on it's nose just before it went over on it's roof. I wish I could find that photo.
