A big welcome Tony.

Supersaloons have been discussed quite a bit recently. You were in the middle of it all, so your opinion would be of great interest to a lot of us around here.

Anyone know what 'WRC' stood for, was it Bill's business or something?

The "WRC" stands for William Richard Cox, Bill was just a shortened down name.
