Looks like Ed has been too busy to flag this but I hope to see all the 'old' faces out there this weekend.

Crikey Mick, who said that? I NEVER,EVER reversed the wheels [I assume that's what was referred to - a dangerous practice carrried out by a few dangerous VW drivers].Greg Mackie at Catalina, in "de spare", reversing the rims on his dub to get traction!

My rear wheels were Customline rims [15"X5"], welded to VW centres. Front wheels were stock VW [15"X4"]. Traction was never a problem.
It sometimes amazes me what people come out with......journalists included.

Yes I know the feeling. To go to PI was a $800 trip, just from Adelaide doing every thing on the cheap. Great event though.I'll be there, for sure on Saturday and possibly Sunday, hanging over the spectator fence. I'm still not too sure about only one longer race on the Sunday for each category. Casual spectators would enjoy seeing all classes twice for the day, even if they are shorter races.
For the competitor though, after possible private practice on the Thursday, qualifying and racing on the Friday, and then two races on the Saturday, one good length race on the Sunday is probably enough for both car and driver.
After watching the Aust. Historic Motorcycle Championships at SMP last weekend, and the Tasman Revival this coming weekend, before heading across the ditch for the Denny Hulme Festival in January and then the Phillip Island Historics in March, while squeezing in an Historic Wakefield Park in February and a possible Easter Historics at Mallala, I think I am going to have to look for a sponsor just for being a spectator.

I don't have the details but here are a couple of snaps.
(edit)
Rod Jolley’s Lister Jaguar Monzanapolis was built by Ecurie Ecosse to compete in The Two Worlds Trophy, held at Monza in 1957 and 1958 and co-promoted by the Automobile Club of Milan and USAC (United States Auto Club). Run over 3x63 lap heats, its entry matched Offenhauser powered Indycars against Maserati 250Fs, Jaguar D types and Ferrari’s 296 and 375 Indycar on the 30 degree banked circuit. Superbly presented then as now, in polished aluminium, it’s a reminder of what might have been when F1 first met Indycar.
