Watkins Glen 6 Hours 1972 - Research

Does anyone have a copy of the original programme and/or entry list for the 6 hour WSC race in '72. A scan or fax would be very helpful.

On the entry list for the race is car no. 99. This is a Royale RP6, entered by Bob Weschler (see separate post). The car is described as an RP6 Ford 1600 (Orange/white). From another source, it appears that the car was seen in practice, but did not qualify or race. The car was co-driven by Ray Heppenstall.

I am trying to add some more detail to the above. Anything on either driver, chassis number, engine type (Twincam?) etc. Photographs are of particular interest, as I'm looking to rebuild my RP6 (chassis no. 8) into a replica of the Weschler car.

Any leads would be welcome.

A fellow club racer ran a RP6 out of Western Canada. PM me and I can give you some particulars.
Cheers.
