Here's one for Mel

May 10 1987 Westwood.

Check out the 600 Production Class and see how many people you can identify.

Gamma just sold on Ebay for over $10K, sigh............

 

I see 'the gentleman racer'. And some obnoxious drunk.

 

Who is the dude with the tie?

 

That is Nick Defago. Custom leathers.

C'mon. Doesn't anyone else see someone from the Dark Ages?

 

I started coming to Westwood in '88 so I may be out of the loop on some of these, but here's my best guesses (apart from Defago, who's already been ID'd):

99 - Tom Walther
101 - Steve Dick
11- DAF
Z99 - Daryll Fletcher (or John Ramsay?)
71 - Is that Karl V.S.?
2 - Tommy Douglas ?

I don't think I've done very well on these...

 

I think 71 is Richard Mitchell and 2 is Bill Jenkins.:2cents:
Oh, yeah. I think 412 is Peter Ditchfield.

 

I will definitely defer to you on these, John; I only have a few pre-1988 photos and maybe a program or two (though still have most of my '88-'90 programs!).

 

I'm trying to figure out who #11 is. DAF? Who dat? This looks like a club race, not a national round. John I agrre with your ID's, could #11 be the obnoxious drunk from the dark ages? I'm thinking Rob Mutch; he was obnoxious even when he was straight!!

 

Sorry, by 'DAF' I was referring to a different obnoxious - though equally loveable drunk - the very Ted Shannon who started this thread.

 

Here's another one if you want it, for 'only' the price of a new 600:
