Jeremy,

Great news on the Group R front - look forward to seeing this class get off
the ground. And anyway, how much is the Reynard for a race?

Of course the thing now is that with historic racing including things built
up to the end of 1983, then the obvious development is that HQ Holden racing
is now an historic category.

Who wants to tell Charlie Jardine? Bet it blows his deerstalker off!

Festives etc,

Patrick
