from the "kirk" family you mean Ivan? where is the BIG wing (garage door) with the wallpaper on it ? One of my first introductions to Mod racing was at Woodford Glen where Ivan had been told he had to "Tidy up the car or else". It turned up with day glo spray bomb paint on the body and wallpaper on the wing!!!!  Hey he had made the effort and they let him race!! Was a bit distracting,what with the colours and the wallpaper peeling off and falling across the following cars window openings!!!! ;D ;D He made headlines with a good tumble at Ellesmere not long after!! Is he still around anywhere??? |

Don't recall seeing Ray race last season, this is from the season before. Should be on an old driver thread.   |

Ray ran his car at Easter he got in sorted for the final race we had a race long battle at the rear of the Field . Great race between the two of us for the duration of the race as hard as i tried i could not get passed the old fox and we touched a couple of times, good hard clean driving i think we passed a few cars along the way. Hope to see Ray out again this season still a competitive driver. Along with Mike Moore both in the sixties and still racing hard.

Last I heard Miles Forsey still had it. I too remeber this car from back in the day when Ross Baker and Glen Free used to come down to WG for the 25 lapper. Last time I saw the car run was Ashburton, and it was parked in the old tire wall pretty hard. Not sure its ever been run after this time. |
