I think that it would have been Viana. Shaun v.d. Linde did a few touring car races, as did Mike Briggs (runs some petrol garages in PE, I think).
Hennie Groenewald was quite quick in F3 back in 93. Marco dos Santos did a one off for Goddard in F3 as well. Mike Bryan did a one off in F3000 in the late 80's, I think.
Various drivers lower down in F/Ford (me!), mainly at the Festival. I think the reason why there were more drivers back in the early 80's was due to the strength of the Rand. I believe that at one point it was stronger than the Pound. Now it's between R10 - R15, depending on what's going on in ZA. There's very little point in ZA companies pumping money into international race series when there will be no return on their investment. Most decent ZA drivers go back and race Modified Saloons or Group N type touring cars.
Stephen Watson was heavily involved in the soccer world cup, I believe that Cowie is in Scandinavia now.
