Hi sauber, I should have picked that up re 31P, I have gone back over some of the meeting reviews from last season and the info is right in front of me, however I went of the current driver listings.
With regards to 36A, is Beckett the chassis name?
And what year did the Dixons` acquire the old Taylor Gordge car?

The Gordge car was built for / by Blondie for the 2001-2002 Season where he came out and blew everyone away in Christchurch for his 4th NZ title. I believe the car was owned by Nigel at Sovereign Freight. Nigel still had it when lance stated driving it,eventually buying it off him in 2005 (I believe). The car ran in its original configuration until 2013 when Lance rebuilt the front end.

Thanks Wade, I appreciate the reply.

It was about halfway through last season that it appeared as 25I.

36A was raced as a limited saloon by 4A Tim Beckett. Not sure what type of chassis it was.
