So we have the Hill's as Son (#0) and Father (#00) running the numbers

Oliver and Pryce running #0 and #00 respectively as Shadow Team mates in US F5000.

That leaves Ongais and Field being the quirkiest, having on numerous occasions run as co-drivers in Porsche 934's and 935's (plus a 911 I think) as both #0 and #00.

In fact I think in 1979 they won the Daytona 24hr in a 935 together running as #0, then a month later put an extra 0 on the 935 and ran as #00 at the Sebring 12hr.

Interestingly, and I know not the reason, but I notice Ongais and Field regularly double entered the major races as both #0 and #00, leaving one entry as a DNS but running the other number.

Maybe your question Bob, as you worked through it more than Graham, who by his own admission 'took a punt'.... and also asked the previous question .
