I Believe its an AC Cobra at the Goodwood revival driven by Van der Garde?

We're on the home stretch now, it is most certainly #VanDerGod behind the wheel.

And that's a wrap. Guess it's your turn, kevin, I don't really know how this works

Make, model, and driver of the lead car, please, as well as the year and venue, as per usual.

That's Silverstone, and a Ford Capri out front?

Post by **kevinbotz** » 28 Jan 2017, 01:58

Silverstone is correct; Ford Capri is incorrect.

Dammit, getting my Fords mixed up. That's an Escort out front, with Chris Craft driving in 1969, supporting the British GP.

Post by **kevinbotz** » 28 Jan 2017, 02:01

...correct on all counts. Pasta receives next pick.

Roger Williamson, March 713M, Brands Hatch, 1971

...sigh. Normal gets all four points, along with the next pick.

A bit late, but I hope it's still ok:

maybe Nurburgring a RA271 Honda 1964 Ronnie Bucknum? but then the engine area doesnt look right ...
At least I feel I may be in the ballpark on this one

It is Nurburgring, and it is close to 1964, but driver and year are wrong.

Post by **tommykl** » 01 Feb 2017, 15:42

Hmmm. Could this be Ian Burgess? Certainly looks like him. In which case, I'd say 1962, and a Cooper T59.

Correct, wrong, wrong.

Post by **tommykl** » 01 Feb 2017, 15:50

Okay, then. Let's say 1961 and a Cooper T53.

Correct.

It's getting to a point where even I'm forgetting about this. Okay, here's something a little more contemporary:

Peteroli34 · Post by **Peteroli34** » 04 Feb 2017, 13:08

2006 Williams FW28 - Barcelona. Judging by the Helmet its Narian Kartikeyan although technically he is not a reject.

I'm just going to go ahead and award all four points to Peteroli for this. The track is actually Jerez, though I should have realised in the first place that Karthikeyan's not eligible for this quiz. :facepalm:

Yeah, it's not like the US GP of 2005 is memorable or anything...

Well to be fair nothing of note actually happened that weekend

With nothing to back it up aside from the fact he drove in rallies and that some sponsors seem vaguely Portuguese, I'm going to guess Pedro Chaves, Rally Portugal, 2000...Toyota Celica?

It is Pedro Chaves in Rally Portugal but not a Celica or 2000.

Normal32 · Post by **Normal32** » 05 Feb 2017, 01:12

Pedro Chaves, 1998, Toyota Corolla WRC, Rally Portugal

Maserati 200s, John Fitch, Oakes Field Course (Nassau Toursit Trophy)

Normal32 · Post by **Normal32** » 08 Feb 2017, 22:14

John Fitch, Oakes Field, 1957, Maserati 200 S

Post by **Bobby Doorknobs** » 08 Feb 2017, 22:28

The result was a tie and the tiebreaker was:

"Which F1 reject did John Fitch give driving lessons to in 1959?"

The answer to which was Peter Ryan, which Normal32 correctly guessed.

Indianapolis, 1971?
