For the attention of DVT

Dave, I have just come across this photograph that I took in the Isle of Man around 1972.

Is this you and Colin Mack?

Certainly is!  1974 Manx International.  Finished 32nd overall, 3rd in class.
The car was registered new in September 1973 and did three rallies that year, then there were no rallies due to petrol crisis for a few months.  During that time it was converted from being an Avenger Tiger Mk2 to being a Group One GT model.
We did 16 rallies in it, then in November 1974 it was replaced by the red one GCC11N.
Lot of success with Red Garages back in those good old days ...

That' an incredible achievement DVT, well done.     When I used to walk my dog I'd often meet Roy White and he would tell me about your exploits in the Rallying World and it was really interesting to hear all about them.         It was nice to see the photo and Ill mention it to Roy when I see him next


It's no wonder that your thoughts on the present 20 mph rule are unprintable           ;D
