Geez I remember all those shots from Pukekohe but not the names. Some more incidents from the esses or up over the top of the hill were Ron Sylvester (Chev Coupe) and Clyde Collins in the PDL Falcon both disappearing off into the infield on the left hander in the wet one xmas. Could not see either of them after they hit the grass because of the water and mud they threw up.
Just approaching the rise up onto the hill, Red Dawson Monza, Grant Walker Capri and a couple of others I cant remember touched and ended up in the fence, up the bank and generally all over the track.
Coming down the hill onto pit straight, the biggest I remember was the Paul Fahey flying farewell when he did literally after ending up on the grass over the top and launched off the little grass bank where the track crossing is.
Another ditch job was Grant Walker straight off the end of the back straight into the drain at the bottom of the hill. The nose was stuck in the bank on the other side.
Sorry no pics but great memories of the good old days.
