Gardner leaning over his Camaro's engine room. | |
The Silverstone round always showed interesting cars from the domestic series - here the AMC Javelin of David Howes. | |
The Camaro of Thomas and Sanger - not eligible for ETCC points. | The works Capri of Mass. |
Two private Capri's: The Frami car for Franck/Hezemans... | ... and the British car for Muir. |
There were Escorts, of course: the British car of Brodie... | ... and Crabtree. |
A regular ETCC competitor: the Broadspeed BDA of de Uriarte/Barrios. | The Bevan Imp of McGovern, British champion for years, finished 14th; the other car was on the reserve list. |
The two Filipinetti Fiats. | |
The Swedish Topcon team brought three Juniors... | |
... just like the Autodelta team. | |
Shrewd Hezemans qualified the private Capri second behind the Camaro of Gardner, but ahead of the works and Gartlan cars! |
From left to right: Glemser, Muir, Mass and Leech's Mustang. |
The works Capri of Mass. | The Broadspeed Escort receiving some last-minute treatment. |
Heat 2 grid: Mass, heat 1 winner, on pole with Muir second. | Hezemans started third (did Franck ever take the wheel at all this weekend?) with Walkinshaw next. |
Row 3: de Uriarte, next the Camaro of Martin Thomas, Facetti on the right. | One of the three Swedish Topcon Alfa Romeos. |
A real fight between the Cologne works car and the privateer entry of Franck and 1972 journeyman Hezemans. They try to lap Mendham (Mini) and Coffey (Escort TC). |
