Kincraft or Nomad
Whats this?
I have been scanning some more photos and have come across this. The Program (assuming I'm looking at the right race) says its a Kincraft, in my mind its a nomad. The race was the GP support in 1981. Last edited by Nordic; 8 Jan 2005 at 15:00. |

Number 17 in the Picture. It ran in the Minolta Sports car race.
The Program refers to it as a Kincraft, but I thought they only made F5000 cars. |

This car is, in fact, a Kincraft. It is now owned by Richard Blenko of Milton, West Virginia in the U.S. Some information on the car is on his web site:

Nomad
I wondered about the Nomad name since I'd had some dealings with a Mark Koenig (Koenig/Heath) in London in the mid seventies as he'd taken over the Palliser Racing Design concern and built a few Nomad FFs , one of which was raced by Geoff Creber. I bought the Rowland engine from that car back then and it's resting comfortably on the shop floor awaiting the funds to rebuild it. Now if only the Lottery Gods would be agreeable to funding it!
