Happy Friday! This week’s Blast from the Past is another wonderful Terry Marshall image, this time from a very wet Manfeild in 1976. Leo Leonard in the PDL Ford Mustang leads Jim Richards in the Sidchrome Ford Mustang and they are chased by Jack Nazer in Miss Victorious.
It’s Blast from the Past time of week again! This week’s Terry Marshall shot comes from the legendary Baypark raceway in 1972. It shows a pair of equally legendary driver battling it out; Allan Moffat in the Ford Mustang and Pete Geohegan in the Ford Falcon.
This week’s thoroughly awesome Blast from the Past pic from Terry Marshall is the legendary Red Dawson in his Chevrolet Monza at Timaru in 1976. Enjoy!
This is brilliant. The wonderfully talented and passionate Antti Kalhola has just done another video that perfectly explains WHY F1 drivers race using just archival footage and perfectly judged quotes.

It is powered by TWO 4.6-litre Ford modular V8s with FOUR, yep that’s right, FOUR superchargers that produce an approximate power output of around 900kW!! And it is built […]
Welcome a resurrected “Blast from the Past” section. Previously we ran tests of classic cars under this banner (and would love to start doing so again – so if anyone is keen to rattle off a few words about their own, or a mate’s classic then drop us a line!) but now we have re-jigged […]
More fantastic Terry Marshall shots – this time from the Lady Wigram Revival meeting at Ruapuna. The legendary Kenny Smith took out the Lady Wigram Trophy for the fifth time and seems to be immortal. He isn’t getting slower, that’s for sure!
This video has it all. That is all there is to say.
