When did Dave Richards Motorsport (Autosport?) actually become Prodrive? From memory, the Rothmans 911s in 84/85 were 'DRM', but it was definitely Prodrive by the time they moved onto BMW M3s in '87
Prodrive's website is claiming this year as their 30th anniversary, 1984-2014.
Looking at pics of the McRae 6R4 in period, I don't see any obvious 'Prodrive' logos on it (but is that a DRM/DRA logo on the front wing, just ahead of the door in the first pic?)
