Any info on the MG Nigel? Haven't seen it before.
Marvyn Towers- supercharged MG, from Hawera
Runs in the GT class, neat bit of kit.
Invited to run with Historic Sports Sedans recently at MG- Manfield and looked completely at home.
Could be running with us again at Barry Algie, Taupo April 7,8,9.
Rodger- shall I check with Marvyn his ownership papers, maybe it was yours,after all it has to have been someones..........
BTW- it really, really does look neat, and runs a twin turbo Rover V8.
#862/1 - Great to know that Tim bought this Speedwell car to keep it in NZ!
Fantastic pics as always Nigel. If this becomes an annual event, may have to wander down next year. If I can persuade #1 grandson, to graduate to 4 wheels from 2, may even renew my race licence, come out of retirement and share a car in U2K!!
Nigel- so glad to see you were there to enjoy a simply superb weekend of racing in Taupo The weather was totally on our side, more than making up for recent wet tracks at HD.
We had 2 X 4 lap handicaps on Saturday, 3 X 5 lap handicaps today. and every race had a different winner.
Neil Deighton..Chavenger.
Roger Davis...Torana.
Bruce Goodwin ...Zephyr MK3 V8.
Dennis Running.....Mazda RX8
Very popular win by Craig Stacey in the ex Paul Fahey, Rod Coppins, John Ward Anglia Breadvan.
Adrian Dobbe won the non-performance related Barry Algie memorial trophy.
First time for Historic Sports Sedans there and a really laid back atmosphere.
Huge thanks to HRC, Bruce McLaren Park management , all flaggies ,and the competitors for a meeting to remember.
Highlight was Cam and Di making Saturday afternoons barbeque.
John, I totally agree with your comments. I was only there for the Saturday sessions but it was warm and dry and it was great to see some of my favourites cars out on the track doing what they do best.
Very nice pics of the vintage field Nigel. Shame I left the country just when the vintage scene is gaining some momentum, large thanks to David Brock-Jest of Hooters for supporting the concept.
Awesome photos as always Nigel.
They were taken last Saturday - That means, Terry S, that they are "images from my past", he says with a smile.
I am hoping that this website will be around for a long time and while all of the images I post these days were taken in my recent past, they will hopefully be of interest to someone in the years to come.
