Name that car...

[Muddytalker]

Yeah I wasn't sure on that, and didn't want to cheat by checking/googling. March 711?

 

[FB]

Well done Muddy, it is the late, great Ronnie Peterson in a March 711. What a great looking car, shame the modern designers can't be so imaginative.

 

[Muddytalker]

Agreed on the imagination front

Meanwhile, try this for size

The constructor is easy, but which model/engine was it. Do you remember the driver, and which circuit?

 

[teabagyokel]

If you're asking for the driver, does that mean it was Schlesser, and hence Monza?

 

[Muddytalker]

Correct. And the car type/model, with engine?

 

[cider_and_toast]

No idea about model/type (apart from the fact it starts with FW) but wasn't that the time when they had the Judd V8 Engine?

 

[Muddytalker]

Yeah I'll give you that - FW12 with a Judd V8 engine

 

[cider_and_toast]

So over to TBY for the next one then.

 

[teabagyokel]

The game's called name the car, not driver. Your move!

 

[cider_and_toast]

Ok, found one !!!

Right, What car is this? Bonus points for whose driving and what's unusual about the car?

 

[Galahad]

OK: blue with white noseband equals Rob Walker, so I'm going to guess it's the boy Moss at the wheel.

But what is it? Doesn't look like a Cooper, nor a Lotus. It can't be a Ferrari, can it?

 

[cider_and_toast]

Point for Moss GM.

 

[Brogan]

Is it something to do with the last front engined car?

 

[Galahad]

Ah, damn! I know what it is now...

 

[Brogan]

Ah, damn! I know what it is now...

Don't keep us in suspense then.

 

[Galahad]

In suspense

It's the Ferguson P99, isn't it? The Grand Prix Tractor?

 

[cider_and_toast]

He Shoooooots.......

He Scores.

Yep. The only F1 car to win a race using 4-Wheel drive.

Unfortunatly GM your prize is to post the next picture.

 

[Galahad]

Getting something right in this forum always leaves a slightly sour taste...

I'll see what I can rustle up over the weekend.

 

[Galahad]

OK, vaguely topical, what's this, and who's driving?

 

[cider_and_toast]

Given that it's from the US (Stars and Stripes on the air intake)

Is it a mid 70's Penske ?? Is the driver "Super" Mario Andretti ??
