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.
