Telecom Classic MOTORFEST 1994
Previously posted the Ticket [ Telecom Phone Card ] and the 1993 Programme.
Recently came across a post by " ** Elvis Jagger Abdul Jabbar ! " with these. I had posted some of my photos from the 1994 event and " ** Elvis " commented and added these items !!
** " Elvis " is TRS's Remi .. mystery solved and has now added the Race Entries for each class plus an article from April 1994 NZ Classic Car - which I would have had !!.
Programme Cover.
Competitors Tickets and other passes.
The Entry List Summary - a list of all cars, classes and drivers, some drivers entering more than one race or class.

List of Entrants - split in half as script too small as one picture.
The Top Half followed by The lower Half - a small overlap so no one got missed;

Some errors in there - the Alfa Spyder a 1935 model - think that is 1953, and John Boyd's Sunbeam Rapier at 1275cc, should be 1500 [ 1498 ] or 1725 .. Sure there are others - !!
No post is complete without a Healey - so here is a repost.

This is a phone card issued at the time, has the same images as the program, which I have lost.
the card has never been used but understand they do expire.

A Morgan in the pits - with my Grandson Jason " Admaia " Peita - who is now nearly 35 standing beside it
[ Photo has been posted elsewhere. ]
Steve is going to shift other photos.
If anyone has the program, results, newspaper articles or photos please add to the thread
After receiving the Programme Cover, firstly from Ken h - post #2, and more recently from " Elvis " I now have the detailed list of entrants and realise some of my notes are incorrect - e.g. The Sunbeam Rapier - is not my old mate Owen Faussett. Will go through when I get a moment and correct the details.
Refer to post #48 above for the list.
Thanks to Ken H, John Mck, " Elvis " and Organiser Laurie Brenssell for more information.
Cheers
Roger
Entries and Errors .. the comments
ERC " Some because no doubt the entrant's writing wasn't the best and at other times, secretarial duties by typists who had very little knowledge of cars or drivers. "
John Mck " For me the most important part is who was there and what were they driving "
Agree Guys - but it is at least some detail - would like the actual race entries if anyone has the time to scan and post them here !!

Entries and Errors .. the comments another Note !
Just looking through the entries and see Donn White, from Tauranga in his Mini Clubman which was a rather Special one - built for Competition by BMC Australia back in 1973. Donn got the car brand new in 1973
Donn sold the car - must check when, but know he bought it back around 1990 had it restored and still has it.
Didn't get a photo at the " Telecom " but did take these in Tauranga at a Greerton Fayre in March 2019.
