Hullo All;
On pay TV on a Saturday night is a music nostalgia programme hosted by Ken Sparkes
Memory tells me that he was a handy sort of driver in Clubmans.
From memory he had an immaculate black and gold (I think) Elfin.
I was just interested whether the car is still around.
One thing I remember was on a Monday mornimg on his show on Sydney's 2GB I think it was he always used to say what a good weekend he had and ALWAYS thanked the officials.
Was a nice touch.
Cheers.
Roger.

If that's the voiceover man from ch 9, I thought he used to have a Lotus 23.

Hullo GD;
He may have had a lotus 23 later in his career but to tell the truth I cannot remember it.
All I can remember is a very gentlemanly driver on on and off the black stuff.
There were so many Lotus 23's in that era it was hard to keep up with who was who!!
We are going back near as dammit to 40 years here so the memoery must get a tad rusty.
Cheers.

He raced the 23 as an Historic car in the late seventies...

His Clubman was an Elfin, as I recall.

Sparksy always had a sexy pit set up at the Farm which won him a lot of points.
