I posted photos from a Japanese magazine on the 1985 race on this forum, so I am very happy I got to see your photos to see what is was like.
Feel free to add your experiences /comments from attending the race if you still remember :)
Hello, your PDF file is one of the first posts I looked at after I joined. I had noticed that on page three of your pdf I had two similar pictures.

I believe the girl posing with Gil Jr and Sr in your pdf is the girl on the left in this picture of radio impound.

I am happy to see that everyone can get a feel of what it was like to be there.

Great set of pictures! Really gives you the feel of the mid 80's! I love how there was so many different style buggies racing against each other.

One thing that confuses me though is the photo of Jay's RC10.

Is there a story behind this car that anyone knows? I don't recall ever seeing that livery before. Was this a spare car he had in the pits?
Consistency is the key I keep misplacing.

I'm guessing a Concourse entry?
