Five questions, as normal, but this time there's a "prize"... the winner will receive their choice of either TOCA 1 or World Wide Rally! (Pause for gasps of astonishment at such extravagant prizes...) OK, let's get going: 1) Which racing driver's father founded the Japanese karting federation? 2) Patrick Tambay excelled at which sport as a schoolboy? 3) In the 1951 Indy 500, who was the first finisher *not* to use a Kurtis Kraft chassis? 4) Which F1 teams have managed at least 20 fastest laps? 5) What was Christian Danner's first racing car? Entries to either my normal e-mail address or the GPL Scrapyard one (see my website). Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all! -- David. (GPLRank handicap: -5.92) The GPL Scrapyard - http://www.hillclimbfan.f2s.com "After all, a mere thousand yards - such a harmless little knoll, really" - Raymond Mays on Shelsley Walsh.
Answers...all correct, incidentally, David, so I'll take TOCA1, please :-) Merry Christmas, also. (1) Toshiro Mifune, after he played the part in "Bridge On The River Kwai". (2) Lacrosse. He played for the All-France Lacrosse Team in 1976. (3) Elmer G. Doofus, who drove the Nutmeg Special, a one-off based on the Miller Light chassis of 1924. (4) Ferrari, Maserati, Alfa-Romeo, Mercedes, Auto-Union, ERA, HWM, Bugatti, BRM, Lotus, Brabham, AAR- Gurney, Cooper.....ahhh, bugger it. There's too many. (5) RALT. -- Regards, Bruce Kennewell, Canberra, Australia. --------------------------- David Buttery <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Five questions, as normal, but this time there's a "prize"... the winner > will receive their choice of either TOCA 1 or World Wide Rally!
