Ernie Sprague
Ernie Sprague died in his sleep Thursday 13th May.
"If Barry Crump had ever written a book on NZ motor racing in the 50's, Ernie Sprague would have been the main character. He charachterised the period, the people and the cars. A hard case, certainly, but a racer and a winner" - Eoin Young. |

What a huge, huge lost of a true enigma of New Zealand motorsport.
I had not heard of this at all, and wish to pass condolences to all those - family and friends - who knew a true motorsport character! Race In Paradise, Ernie! |
