Interesting little thread Scott!

I recall the one entrant being called John Jeffries Engineering that Belcher drove for. I'm sure he drove one in 1985 (Red and Blue two tone paint job) and then either leased or pedalled a GT16 Corolla in 1986/87?

My recollection is 3 cars in 1983, 2 x Datapost/Longman and 1 x Brooklyn/Hodgetts.

6 in 1984; 2 x Datapost, 1 x Hodgetts, 1 x Julian May (driven by Jock Robertson mainly white car), 1 x John Maguire (driven by Rob Hall, Universal Grinding Wheels backed decked out in White and blue stripes) and then there was Barry Lee's Total car which never ran properly thus scuppering a very handy driver's efforts.

2 Datapost cars started 1985 and then one continued when Longman introduced the RST, Brooklyn/Hodgetts ran 2 cars and there was Jeffries/Belcher car as stated at the top.

Can't quite remember who drove them in 1986/7/8/9 but with what he's posted KA seems on the money there.

The Julian May car ended up a sort of Scalextric Westwood Racing beige in it's latter couple of years didn't it??!!!
