If you mean the honey-comb style wing craig used to run back in the day Buster then I think you will find that they are now illegal. But it did used to look cool back then.

He put on the fancy chrome wheels on for the photo shoot for the Nelson Mail.  Not the best image that I got sent but if you're local, there is a much better photo in tonight's newspaper with the article.

This paragraph is the one that interested me !!
"Nick will do the big meetings but the bug's got me again and I will definitely drive if and when I can. Then the aim is to be back out there with a brand new car in a two-car team next season to do this thing properly. It'll be a Gordge chassis and a Pulman Chev and Nick and myself will run the two together.

Personally, I liked the bit about the 10,000rpm .. and the fact that Quick Nick IS a bloody rock-solid bloke. All the best to the 7N team.

Right from the horse's mouth...."The new chassis and package have already been ordered so theres no chance of missing out next season!!!"  |
