Thanks Noel for the write up on the #a4de Vintage Class, memories of a epic 40th.
Rodger brings us a piping hot story on Bassani and Hookers, along with the VMX team #74 well worth the $14.
Use it or lose it :)
Best is in the West !!

Great to read (even more) about Ake's 1972 Trans-Am; plus how he and DeCoster (and Van Velthoven!) were performng in GPs and des Nations at the time.
Imagine the Maicos they shifted after Ake gig.

The Hannah story had inexplicable (just plain weird) grabbers throughout, with plenty missing info.

And ... fancy calling an expansion chamber 'Hooker' in the 1970s!
