Very poor photo but could it be David Oxtons Lola Ford as mentioned in " David Oxton Magic Memories " article in the
" Auckland Car Club 75th Anniversary 1932 to 2007 " Book, which features photos from Ross Cammick and Milan Fistonich, from TRS amongst others.

Any details on these cars?
Ray the open wheelers, yes - when I posted this photo on another thread, there was info from others, was a mixed field of Formula V, sports cars [ U2 -ish ] and Formula Fords / Juniors.
Will dig the info out and repost.
Have found the info - see a new post just now cheers Ray.

And this from TRS member rf84
- Barney Pellow in the Brabham, ? in the U2 (fairly distinctive alloy wheels should identify it), the "Mini special" is an MER-possibly Doug Cross? The F Vee behind the MER (and in the large photo) looks very much like a McQueen Vee (Auckland built car based closely on an Australian "Elfin" design).
And this from Milan Fistonich
- The U2 looks like the one my mate raced in the mid-sixties. He sold it to Graeme Morley. It was built by Graham McRae and was unusual in that it had independent rear suspension.
Edit: Morley is listed as competing at the Club Circuit on August 18 1968 so it must be his car.
This from Ross Hollings edited ;
- Minimax on back of grid with Ken Flashman in the ex Peter Bruin Cooper Vincent.

Thanks to Ross [ photo ] and Ken [ entry list ] for providing these thought they should be together.
Remember meeting Peter Bruin when he ran his Lotus 11 !! replica at the Concourse in Te Atatu, in the industrial road where the recycle station is, the Vintage Car Club had a bent sprint, would have been mid 1970's
