ian beckett should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Hi Alex,Charly Lamm gave me a list of all the 635's which Schnitzer had built, and any customers they had sold to and in the list he confirms that chassis #60 had been used by the team during '85.As his letter was dated January 1986 the car could indeed have been sold to Finland later in the year.Schnitzer did build new cars for the '86 season and I have to be honest and say I cannot find where I got the fact about #60 being used in early '86 races from!! The only reference to a Finnish owned 635 I have is a guy called Seppo Palmroth being entered for a Swedish championship race in 1989 but I have no further information. Obviously today with the benefits if the internet we would have all the races around the globe recorded but 20 odd years ago there was precious little apart from the major championships being recorded.
