55s - 77s modified and 55m - 12m sprintcar. i want to say there may have been a midget early on im not 100% sure tho, but any photo is appreciated. if theres knowledge on where the cars are now thatd be cool to know too.
Edit:
The midgets were 8k/s and 9k yellow cars pre 2000s and the mods were from 2000 to 15/16 season and sprintcars were around the 2010s i think
Any knowledge on where the cars are now would be cool too. i know the 77s J&j chassis mod is now 17w (if it hasnt sold), the 55s gordge mod is now the 34gm, Stephen Taylor still has the 55m sprintcar chassis in his shed. one of the 55s J&J chassis was with a wellington family but was sold in 20 or 21? i think the phill game gordge that was 77s was chopped up for a saloon? so really just looking for the 12m sprintcar and the two 55s J&J mods

Eventually Stratford registered the class, and the 8 car became dual registered with Bruce racing out of Stratford and Brett Cole racing it out of Kihikihi. Not long after that Craig got the Phil Game Modified (I think he actually rocked up to watch a Kihikihi meeting on his way back from picking it up), which marked the end of the Wards Midget adventure. Unfortunately it is a crash photo, but below is an Ian Abrahams photo of Brett Cole getting acquainted with the Kihikihi wall. speedwaynz.tripod.com/pow27/pic10279.html |
