I can't think who this is....

[topnitro]

I was hunting through some old pictures and I suddenly came across this car after it had been 'transformed' in an accident at Shakespeare County Raceway. I can remember taking the picture and I have a vague recollection of "something" happening that day, but I simply cannot remember any more details at all. The date on the back of the picture says 1999 but that's no clue as I was notorious for developing films late. Can anyone help?

Thats Aiden Kenny's sportsman Et car. I was racing in the same class at one of the super series meets at shakey. Cant remember what year.

What Hodgy said.

He rolled infront of Spencer at Shakey....what year... ask Spence I had kittens!

August bank holiday 5 years before Steve Dunn rolled in front of him. Work that Mensa question out.

No it was a Ford pop.

BSR / Zane Lewellyn soon put that one right its still racing in the hands of Aiden and Chris Kenny.

Tog informs me it is 1999 and it was the August Bank Hol meet at Shakey.

Five years later in 2004 (Tog confirmed this too) Steve Dunn (unfortunately) rolled too. Spencer plans to give 2009 a miss.

Thanks for the replies and the information, everyone! Mystery resolved, thanks.

Still racing in the hands of Aidan, but Chris races his own Anglia.

Look! It even bent the intake manifold!








I've got one of those old Edelbrock big block torker intakes. You almost can't give them away over here. Bought mine off of a midwestern U.S. round track racer (who was glad to sell it to someone far away) that's drilled and tapped for hidden nitrous.

Is that conrad stanleys old pop?

99 rings a bell as the time he sold it before the new owner trashed it shortly after.

No Aiden Kenny's, as discussed above.

Conrad sold his pop to Rich Gilbertson who put it on it's side about 200ft out at Shakey when the throttle stop came out i think.

It was rebuilt and sold onto another Bristol racer i think.
