Flaggie should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Similar to Crazystu's Porsche one....

At Winton the tow car is an old V8 Bedford truck with a hand winch winder. So a Formula Ford stuffs it into the tyre wall backwards at what we lovingly call "The Tank". End of session out doddles the old Bedford. Hooks up to the tow eye and driver, who's on the tarmac, forgets that car is embedded in tyres. Drops the clutch of the old tow track, and promptly rips the front nose off this Formula Ford.... Needless to say the Driver of the Formula Ford was unimpressed....

Also at Winton... Formula Ford has a HUGE hit on track somewhere, involving a car breaking in half. Safety Crew extract driver, who's uninjured. He turns around, takes one look at the wreck, stammers "My c....ar" and faints. Delayed Shock we think...
