Now it is official that FWJ is bringing out an English built superstock for the big meetings this season, I thought I would amuse you all with some of my FWJ photos taken both here and in England. I regret giving up my photography from 1980 to 1993 as I know I have missed loads of good shots at Brisca meetings I attended in that period, especially Bradford where unobstructed photos from the outside were possible.
I saw FWJ race ministocks and his first full season in Brisca F1 in 1988 and have rated him highly ever since. Amazing to think he is now a veteran having just completed 19 years racing in Brisca F1, but his Dad is still going having started racing in the early seventies if not before.

1993:










1994:








1996:

The smiling little blonde fella looking over the 212 car of Frankie Wainman Snr is FWJ, he has been around stockcars all his life.

can anyone give me some info on that 33r car. who built it? who owned it and where is it now?
i see it has myb on the side.
is it the car that was on the for sale page for 65g?

[pallmall]

It was a Maybe car, the one Robbie was running at the time.
They had to hire another car for FWJ as Stan was running his car at the champs meetings, except for the 240s.
FWJ had the 33R flying.

Somebody will let us know where it is now.

I actually took this photo and 10 years later raced against him at the same track.

FWJ is a true talent can make any car go well is always a pleasure to see him race
