The reason for this is so that everyone has a chance to comment (if they feel the need) at each step along the way.
Additionally, I am going to leave room at each step for comments from the two or three or four drivers who raced at Lobethal to have a say, most of this to come from Allan Tomlinson and John Crouch when Barry and I get together with them in March.
The photos as posted will cover the individual sections of the course, with the first two being the starting area and the commencement of the long leg that followed the railway line between the Mt Torrens and Kayannie Corners, and through the town of Charleston.
First we'll start with a map of the circuit, drawn by Terry Walker in 1985/6 for the AGP book:
Then we have the first two photos:
The last stretch of the circuit comes in from the right, the cars starting the race (handicaps, remember) come in from the left, rushing away to this straight:
And this is how the cars lined up for the start, from the opposite direction, Tomlinson in the silver car on the left:
Ray once you get to Kayannie with your photos please scan that photo out of the book. Maybe if we are lucky we can see that strainer post in one of your photos. The photo btw shows Kleinig driving close to the post in the dirt.
on a Saturday afternoon? You Australians never cease to amaze me, staying up all night and sleep through the afternoon and early evening, and all that with your feet high up in the air!
