After this I spoke to a member of the CAMS (Crimes against Motor Sport) track safety committee and said that I was not happy with the way the concrete wall was sloped to launch the cars up onto it and also the way the flaggies were exposed with no escape route (big drop behind them) and within a decade they fixed it!(no point rushing into it

This happened at Bathurst in 1995 Ask Les Robards (If you know him) he was one of the flaggies that I nearly run over!
Does anyone know if this is Les Robards "Rescue Ted" assisting Lord Woftam(?) in The Woltri vhericle?? If it is....terrific to see Les being remembered...RIP
