Great photo from Salty Creek Tezza with some well known names from the real early days of Short Circuit. Vince Tierney worked for my father for many years.
Thanks.

done a little more research. Kerry gray raced under two numbers that I know of. 323 was used when he was sponsored by brian scheisser on his jap.[ this was brians old race number.] his other race number was 34. number A9 in bigb's pics was steve regeling. my brother chris [563 in some of the pics] believes the photos were taken in 1977. it was at the big track at Tivoli. #31 is tony rose on his tz250 road race engine slider.

 A bit of a surge in new shots coming up on this thread! Great! Really liked seeing the old names in the Salty creek line up.

 Jack davies was the first OZ title holder that I saw ride, most i,pressed! It was at at the old Vineyards track was probably the first day I had a ride, would have been '58 or '59.prior to that I rode at Moorebank which was the only place licenced under the 'Speedway Act' I'm pretty sure Jack Davies had his Jap mounted in a rigid 3T frame.
cheers pancho.
dont follow me i'm probably off line!
