Fantastic machines, I could look at them all day - behind the Mcrae is that a reynard or swift formula atlantic liveried up the same as an Arrows from the Morbidelli era??

Great pictures.
I didn't know John Mann had a T332. I don't suppose you noted the chassis number, did you? Allen |

It's nothing as sophisticated as that. It's a locally built space-frame car called called the RFXV8. It was supposed to be the prototype for a cheaper version of F5000 but it never got off the ground and as far as I know only the one car was built. |

F5000 was very cool, now what was its place in racing?
between inday and F1 or was it a formula libre of sorts with the 5litre restriction, these were all so very excelent. |
