willhire 24hr mazda rx7 fire

hello everyone, i am trying to trace the year and other drivers of a mazda rx7 which spun and caught fire in i think the chicane before the start finish straight. my mate willie rutherford was driving it when the fire happened,if i remember the story correctly the car had just come out of the pits after being refueled but the fuel tank cap was loose? and willie spun when the fuel got on the rear tyres,then the car exploded into a fire ball as the fuel ignited,i think it also hit the barrier in the spin. any one with a memory, photo,etc i would be most gratefull yours bigpentti
