From Autosport: Wisell drove a T280 at the Nürburgring on April 3rd 1972. He non-started heat 1, due to Fuel pump difficulties, and retired after 1 lap of heat 2 (Wet electrics). Bonnier appeared in a T280 (but did not start after the engine failed in practice) at the Imola Interserie race on May 1st 1972. However, I don't have pictures.

The LM practice in 1972 was held on 19/04, with the 3 hour race aswell.

Regards

Jeremy
Sorry to contradict you Jeremy but it was definitely 19th March - I am looking at Autosport of March 23rd 1972 which has a report of the Le Mans Test Weekend. I think where the confusion has arisen is that the date is wrong on the wspr site...something which I have only picked up on today. I will email and point this out.

Cheers

Michael
