These photos were taken by ex LQSS member Brett Finucane and posted on australianspeedway.com on the 1st March 2005. The car was won in a raffle that was conducted to benefit the SSME's Quarter Scale Speedway, by a guy who lived in Canberra. He was a strange dude and to my recollection, the car only turned up to race twice and never completed a full race day at Luddenham. It now appears gone forever. What a shame, it was a beautiful little sprintcar.Photo Brett Finucane @ LQSSPhoto Brett Finucane @ TPCR beside Troy Little's sprintcar.

Kevin, yeah.... you're right. I became very attached to this car. Built by the same guy that built yours. Hey it's a sister sprintcar! It was all Peter's idea initially to raffle a car. I hopped on board and provided wings, assisted in putting it together...etc etc...and saw the raffle through to its conclusion, after Peter moved to the United Kingdom. It is something in which I will not get involved again, however the raffle did, in the long run, prove to be of some financial gain to LQSS
