looks like the sunday of the 1986 RAC.
in order
Per Eklund, Dave Wittock, back in co driver duties after being COC for the 1985 event, finished 7th in 86
Stig Blomquist, Benny Melander, retired on day 2
Mark Lovell, Roger Freeman car caught fire day 2
Mikeal Ericsson, Claes Billstam - who was also a nightclub bouncer, i think retired on day 4.
Mikeal Sunsdstrom, Voitto Silaner, who I think had to drop a place to Juha Kankkunen on team orders, finished 4th.
today, Per Eklund does rallycross, with a monster Saab, Blomquist still does the odd rally in a grp n subaru he must be 60 odd now, Mark Lovell died in a rally 2 years ago, don't know what happed to Mikeal Ericsson, and Sundstrom died of a heart attack about 5 years ago.
