Dan Rear should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
James, re the Travis 792, I noted the tub no as 792-31 at a Sept. 82 Mallory Libre race. I'm pretty sure this was the ex-Cooper/Kim car, and I also recall Kim M telling me the Travis car was the one he used in Atlantic in 1981. So I reckon John T did own this one, maybe as well as the BRD.

Purely from conjecture, the 792 was first used by John T in early 82, Kim had finished with it by late 81, so the dates tally, also they lived pretty close to each other, and I guess knew each other from Libres at the time. Colour of the car was brown for Kim in 81 (Newton Aycliffe), fairly sure it was brown too when John T first used it.

As ever, very willing to be proved wrong !
