Great pics Craig
Hey a-c
yea , even up to the middle 80's this was happening , lot's of guys would turn up at open meetings or club meets in their street cars , they'd drive them to the track , get scrutineered ( roll bar, race suit , fire extinguisher , crash hat , all that was needed ) pull a set of race tyres out of the boot/back seat ,stick on some No's , then line up on the grid
and wait for the flag to drop.
Saw a few street cars go home on trailers too . One guy rolled his wife's shopping car (Escort) she was a little upset . Another particular one was an SLR 5000 , 2 weeks after they were released (brand new) , bent it big time , I started going out with this "bird" from Concord (now my Mrs) turned out to be her next door neighbour ..... :-/
