1961 Ahuriri race circuit.
As you can see in this photo that arriving at the corner of Battery Rd and Hyderabad Rd was a bit intimidating as you can see power poles on either side (protected by a hay bale !), a slight S in the road approaching the corner, the cursed 44 gallon drums, more poles and fencing with the inner harbor marshes beyond plus a very close crowd trying to see from every vantage point and trying to get onto the main straight as quick as possible ..whew !
Here are some photos of the action from that corner and once again I ask for help in identifying the vehicles and the drivers..Thanks.
An interesting special.
