THe Barrie McBride Collection part 1

[45DCOE]

First of all I need to thank my son for posting these. It is something I had considered doing but it was always one of "round tuits" that most of older fellows have. There are a couple of comments I need to make:
The smoke alluded to in the post of the Castrol GTX Saloons was cement dust - someone had an oil spill on the back straight.
The XU1 crash was a doctor from Palmerston North whose name eludes me at the moment. He broke his arm in the crash. At another meeting a Formula Pacific crashed in about the same place. I don't remember any of the detail and the picture I took didn't come out too well. It's nice to know that others are enjoying what I took 30 mumble years ago. That's enough from me for now. Barrie

Think it might have been Jack Drummond

Ok now for some colour ones. Some of these I have already posted, however they may look a little better this time as I have reduced their size correctly this time. I am giving tags to the images if I know them and Dad hasn't given one otherwise they are as Dad has tagged them

The Richard Attwood photograph is one given me by cousin Kelvin Richards. I was resident in Wellington at the time and unable to attend any sort of motorsport event.

[Barrie]

The Chev Coupe was snapped, I think, at the first club event at Manfeild. Somewhere among what Sean has should be a file of that first Manfeild event.

Ok so primarily Tulloch Capri, but front of the Algie Alfetta, in the back Ken Hoberns Anglia and I think, could be wrong Brian Bate's ex Vuyk Stilletto, are there any actual pics of this car floating around from Mr Bate's ownership. I know Bob helped him with the engine and my uncle Gordon McBride worked as a mechanic with Brian on it for a while.

[TonyG]

The 1st unidentified Commodore on post 24 is Trevor Mclean from Papakura Automatics. I have a full pic of it somewhere.
The Jim Stone Cuda in Post 30 is actually Ross Stone.

[seaqnmac27]

Thanks Tony, and I stand to be corrected, but is 11 the Commodore David Oxton shared or is that 3 in the same post. The Cuda was a silly mistake of mine.

[TonyG]

I think you are right about the #3 Commodore and David Oxton. I am sure someone will correct us if we are wrong. Awesome shots by the way. So many great memories from the days when as the cars from one race were driving off the track, the next was coming on.
