Isn't there some kind of superlicence equivalent for the BTCC that can be revoked? And if not, why not?

Well, that is a nice find! That car represents everything F1 rejects is about. It's the most epic team ever. We should totally try to restore that car and run it in classic races!

I also read this. Peter Connew still has the remains of the car in his garage, if I remember correctly. Someone really should try to restore it.

Facinating! I like this guy's humorous story. We should conctact him, and let him know about this site. Maybe he can be a technical advisor for Jamie, and Enoch.

It seems as if even Barry Boor doesn't know any better footage of the Connew Car:

Barry Boor wrote:Anyone who owns the Marlboro F1 review video of 1972-73 has the only known movie pictures of the car. As the cars stream up the hill after the start, there is a brief glimpse of a red and yellow car, right at the back - that's Frankie.

The Brunswick/Duke review has footage of the car in the pitlane (and pulling in to retire) during the Austrian GP.

Erm....what the hell happened there? If it was an unscheduled stop,I might understand the antics,but if scheduled....that is the worst pitstop I have ever seen.
My friend's USB drive spoiled, spilled tea on her laptop and had a bird poo in her hand.

What did she do in her past life to deserve this?
