Nobody said he built a GT from the RT2 did they?? In '82 George was in the 772P, the
RT2 must have been 83 onwards for a year or 2 before Libre died |

Now awaiting restoration for vintage racing (me). 1980 RT2-181 - Cassani - BMW engine F2 - later several drivers in Interseries - was for sale by Thomas Koch in Germany several years ago - anyone know what happened to it? Hope it didn't die. 1981 RT2 - 278 - Wyatt Stanley - followed by several UK owners per above posts - then exported to US for F2 vintage racing - now just been sold to 3rd US owner (on west coast). The only RT2 still in F2 format. Not all RT2s were same design - biggest difference being rear suspension. Thx - Derek |

Just picked up your post.
I have the RT2 #278 the Wyatt Stanley car. Bought from Eric Lang in 2010. Was based on the West coast USA we restored and raced it all over USA. Including Indy, Road America, COTA and LSR. Just brought it back to Australia 2018. Will be running at Phillip Island next month. Does anyone have early photos I can use for HTP. For those interested I have the Spirit F2 201/5 and a few others. Chris Farrrell. |

Chris I used to have two early pics of your car - both provided by 10/10ths members. One was a small fuzzy pic on track, other was with car partially disassembled in a raceshop. I sent these to Jack Crone many years ago. I no longer have any Ralt stuff.
When searching remember that in 1982 Stanley entered the car, incorrectly, as an RH6 - and some say as an RT6. Good luck with the car - should be a hit in Australia. Enjoyed meeting you at Indy in 2014, Derek. |
