Pretty sure Barry Nixon Smith did that on purpose...He is an old Torana racer, had one of DJs Zupps XU1s...He probably was involved in the Yellow car being the poster car for Noosa now I think about it......we are all but running nose to tail at Speed...Hope you camera finger is quick!!. All the big bangers together...and the Group C camoflage Army Falcon XD is behind us as well.

Pretty sure the cut off for Speed and historic is 35 years so I just scrape in..hence the A9X guys are invited cars. The asterix beside the numbers mean they are doing the set timed runs..not outright competition. Last 2 are reserves.
