When Robertson drove the car it was entered by, and I guess belonged to, Fred Opert.
Tom Moore's Astrosports outfit sponsored Forest in the BT35, and I got the impression both from Forest and reading Canadian magazines, that he owned
the car. Forest already had a stake in a March 722 with Al Lader, that he couldn't
afford to run, and I'd be surprised if he could have afforded to buy another [older] car rather than use the cash to run a competitive 722. I've got to go back to Ric
with queries on the 722 so will confirm.
Robertson was definitely Canadian as he scored points in the Canadian championship whereas NW USA drivers like Lader could run, win money, but not get points.
Bob: Many thanks for Bill Eagles's address, will contact him!
