Roger H should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Hello
BT28-6 was originaly driven by Andy Sutcliff with a degree of works help and some from us at Lenham Hurst Racing. We all thought Andy had huge potential after his time in the G4. BT28-6 ended its days cartwheeling though Paddock!
BT28-21 was acquired to replace -6.
At the end of the season Andy was offered a Lotus Components 59 and continued on his self destructive way, what a waste.
John Gillmeister did a race/ lease/ purchase deal with me for -21 and gave me a drive in the car for the Motor Show 200 in October 1970.
John then converted -21 to a BT29 for the opening season of Formula Atlantic.
The remains of -6 were pressed into use in the original Lenham Repco V8 and the frame was used to form body moulds for our bag tank conversions for the 1971 season. Its still stacked up with all the rest of the stuff from that era of my life. A fantastic period!!!
