[QUOTE=AMCO72;4997]......... Foggie competed very successfully here for a year or two with the first car he built.....a Mini [of course] called
'MINCER' [actually THE Mincer]. This type of circuit was I believe a great training ground for drivers and is a great shame that it does not exist anymore. With 3 or 4 different surfaces to contend with ,and a water splash, was quite tricky, and this is where he developed his 'tail-out' style of driving that he demonstrated at Pukekohe in the TKR Holden in the early part of this century.
Hi Gerald,
The Mincer, i Remember it, Fastest of the 1300 mini's at Rallycross, the were a few guys running 1426cc or bigger.
Not the best photo, but had it already scanned. This is the corner just before the water splash. As you said nice 'tail-out' style.
