Dutchy, Without doing an interview, I just wondered that amongst all the cars you raced whether there was one or maybe even 2 that stood out from the others, sort of a favourite car , one that say, you won the most races in , or had the most fun in , or was most reliable.
Do you have a favourite race or meeting that stands out amongst all the others?
I remember way back when you had the holden panelvan with a 327 in it you aimed to do 50 meetings in a season. Did you managed to do it or was it 30 meetings?
Just thought that besides myself others would be interested in this info.
Great to see the pics of your rebuild too.
