1975
Lyons-Charbonnieres - 6th, 7th
Welsh - 6th to 10th
Criterium Alpin - 3rd, 6th to 10th
RACE - 9th, 10th

From "The Welsh Rally" by Mark Griffin & Martin Leonard (http://www.griffinrally.com/welshrally.html):

1975
6th (#21) Chris Sclater/Martin Holmes (Datsun Violet) 215m 15s
7th (#11) Will Sparrow/Nigel Raeburn (Vauxhall Magnum) 215m 51s
8th (#24) Bob Bean/Alan Greenwood (Ford Escort RS) 217m 44s
9th (#20) Andy Dawson/David Richards (Datsun Violet) 218m 14s
10th (#72) Chris Wathen/Tim Bosence (Ford Escort RS) 218m 36s

Yes it's Bob Bean again. I think he may now have retired (I haven't seen him on an event this year) but he did the Roger Albert Clark rally last year after a driving career of more than 50 years!

Bob is entered for the RAC again this year, always nice to see the Cortina.

Bob is entered for the RAC again this year, always nice to see the Cortina.

Good news. I'll look forward to that. Hope he has better luck than last year & we all have less snow!

Hi Americo,
Many thanks for your delivery. One more question: do you have data on RACE'71? I need start numbers of 5th Ruiz-Gimenez and 8th Henry. There was probably polish driver Smorawiński with BMW. Do you know something more what happened to him. Maybe you know his number?
Regards
Janusz

Nop...

Can't help you no numbers neither info about polish driver Smorawinski : only have top 10...

Best regards
Américo.

Yes it's Bob Bean again. I think he may now have retired (I haven't seen him on an event this year) but he did the Roger Albert Clark rally last year after a driving career of more than 50 years!

Hi Steve,

Hello!

Any of you have Rally Elba 1981 and Scottish Rally 1982 dates?

Thank you very much!

[januszsz]

Hi Americo

Here is top 5 of Welsh'75:

01 Roger Clark GB Jim Porter GB 1 Ford Escort RS1800 03:27:22
02 Nigel Rockey GB Ron Channon GB 5 Ford Escort RS 1600 03:31:51
03 Tony Pond GB Mike Broad GB 8 Opel Ascona 1.9 03:32:28
04 Tony Fowkes GB Bryan Harris GB 7 Ford Escort RS 1600 03:32:42
05 Russell Brookes GB John Brown GB 13 Ford Escort RS1800 03:35:13

Do you have numbers and final times of all top 10 from Ypres'74?
By the way you have "Moortgat"/"Andy" later (next years) they appeared as Rudolf Moortgat/"Andy".

Do you have numbers of top 10 RACE'75? Do you have 8th position of that rally as well as first names of 6th Trabado/Serrano?

Janusz
