I don't know who the Mini was raced by, but it is inspired by the Neville Trickett built MiniSprint GTR race car from the UK in late 1965. Although given the treatment 'your' car has been given it makes the Trickett car look tame.

Am going through some old photos of Bulawayo racing, thought they may be of some interest to you guys. Does anybody have the race programme available so we can identify who drove this Mini and was it considered a Marcos or what?

Did not George Armstrong the Mini racer from South Africa build that car? Seem to be similar to one I am sure he raced a few times

Interesting photo. I don't remember seeing that exhaust configuration before. Also, it has a very non-Chapmanesque roll-over bar.Heres a pic for Doug of R3 in its Peter Parnell colours of royal blue with a white noseband. I've always wondered if John Love messed around with the DFV exhaust layout after some tip off from the factory or do you think this was just a mod he came up with himself? I seem to remember he had a business Auto Exhausts in Bulawayo? Maybe he just decided to play...

Top pics LDS thanks for sharing
Lovely pictures LDS. Thank you.
That Mirage was born out of one of the LDS car I believe
And Scamp Porter's unbelivable R8 set the benchmark in the 1300cc class
