I don't think the Sanyo ones came until the next year.

Rad Dougal drove one as well, was that 82?

(btw I also thought they where ugly beasts, prefered the Capris!)
The way it was!
You have no taste Nordic! Jeff Allam scored the first ever SD1 win in 1980 at Brands GP Meeting in a Triplex car prepared by Dave Price Racing. Rex Greenslade ran the 2nd car. These were actually Series 1 cars. Tom W got involved in 82 with the 2 Sanyo cars and Patrick Motors ran 2 for Rex Greenslade and Brian "Yogi" Muir. 83 saw the introduction of GpA and Series 2 SD1s again with TWR running Sanyo colours and Hepolite.
