Australian Auto Action quoted early in 1989 that DJR were planning another attack on the TT later in the year. The same magazine also mentions in another issue (perhaps when reporting Gravett's round 1 win?) that Johnson & Bowe were possible starters in the Donington 1hr race in the second Trakstar Sierra (with Gravett/Smith teaming up in the other)

A shame neither came off...


On another matter, why the switch to rolling starts for 1989?
