I have been through nearly all the Thundersaloon and related threads on here, any chance of a serious go at identifying the current where-abouts of Thundersaloons & Silhouettes from the early '90s before this type of racing stopped? This was my era and I loved these cars;
From 90-91
Stevens/Millard/Cleland/Woodman Vauxhall Carlton-Chevy & Marshall/Oatway Opel Manta-Pontiac "Stars and Stripes"- both still around, will both be at Mallory
But how about;
Birley/King Mitsu Starion-Cosworth
Tony Wolfe (in '92 Ron Cummings?) Honda Legend-Chevy
Farmer/Cox/Millichap/Wallace Sierra RS500-Chevy big block "Black Thunder"
Dell/Boarer Toyota Starlet
Morton/Mortlock Toyota Starlet
Jackson - Sierra RS500 - the ex-Sean Walker car. I think the Mahoney "Arquati" car ended up in thundersaloons as well.
Jackson/Liles Astra 2.4l
Maries/Nash Holden Commodore
Chilton/Philips Vauxhall Senator-Chevy
Shepherd/Whale Vauxhall Calibra-Pontiac? 6.6lire - is this at Mallory?
Wilson/Birley "Armour All" Mazda RX7 - used to be beat even the Sertec Carlton
Rod Birley ran a Honda Prelude turbo with Richard Piper in 93, again with Armour All sponsorship I think.
Mike Chittenden Escort Cosworth - red spaceframe one - did this get destroyed at Snetterton?
Mustill RS500 - the all dark blue one with huge bodykit
Chatfield/Streather BMW M3 (ex-Tyson/Luby prods car? Had same livery) & 320i (white with blue underbody, big wheel-arch extensions)
Ward/Dickinson Manta 2.4l
Morris/Morris Peugeot 309
Whale/Hodgetts - Toyota Supra
Pearson/Marshall - Toyota Supra
Both of these were ex 1988 BTCC cars, not modified a great deal but a lot faster out of GrpA especially with Hodgetts peddling.
Nick Crocker's Opel Monza-Chevy all white, big wing on the back.
Ashton/Hales Vauxhall Belmont 2.3l - another ex-BTCC car
David Lesli ran a Merc 190-Chevy in 93 as well I think, my memory not as good, and there was a Quaife/Hathaway Escort Turbo in 93 and I am sure a bright orange "Escat" with a Jag V12 shoe-horned into a Escort Cosworth 4x4, but it kept doing a few practice laps, breaking the final drives and not starting races I remember, was an amazing piece of kit while it was working.
Anyway, I have wracked my memory enough, here's a clip I posted on YT to start you off, help prove me right/wrong, thanks!
