Onlows RT20 was a Pavesi car, owned by Peter Boylan, was later driven by Neil Crompton in Dulux colours.

Smithy crashed Dave Mawers car twice, once at Philip Island and also at Amaroo, which required a new tub.

At the time 1989/90 the shortage of spares required we all work together to keep the cars on the track. In 89 at Winton Simon Kane left the road at the esses before the old main straight and went straight into about a foot of water. The water filled the sidepods, ripped them off the car, split the undertray clean in half. The car looked a mess but Dave Mawer stripped all the parts off his car in Sydney, Elwyn Bickley drove them down to Winton over night, and we had the car back on the track the next morning. Good teamwork and mateship.

Onslow's car was owned by Onslow, later sold to Drew Price.

Crompton drove Peter Boylan's RT20 whenever it was available in 89/90.

At Amaroo in 89 Crompton tangled with John Smith in Dave Mawer's RT21. At Phillip Island in 1990 Smith wrote off the tub and Dave Mawer build his own replacement, reportedly substantially stiffer than the original, which helped a lot and revised the wings, which didn't work at all when Onslow drove the car the next year.

I can't think of where the Larkham car came from, was this originally the Jon Davison chassis?
