XU1s included Stewart McLeod/Adrian Mortimer, Mick Brown/Randy Warden and the all-female crew of Brenda

Haigh/ Rosemary White.

ASCC President John Keran with Kevin Bartlett Keran drove the rally sections whilst Bartlett handled the circuit racing

Perhaps the most interesting car in the event was the Alfa Romeo GTV of Alfa Romeo Australia for David

McKay/Robin Sharpley. It was fitted with a GTAm 2-litre racing engine from Brian Foley’s racing Alfa.

THE COMPETITION

Division One – Saturday 7 August – Sydney Region (Silverdale Hillclimb & Oran Park Raceway)

Silverdale Hillclimb

Bob Holden takes the Ford Escort TC up the Silverdale Hillclimb

From the Sydney start at the Roselands Shopping Centre the field headed straight for the 543 metres Silverdale

Hillclimb, where the competition included a practice run plus three officially timed runs, the times being added

together to produce the final results.

Colin Bond, a former record holder of the climb, in the Holden Torana XU1 quickly established a lead over the

other competitors. Bob Holden was second in his Escort TC followed by David McKay in the Alfa Romeo GTAm

(who had not driven the hillclimb for 18 years) on equal third with Stewart McLeod in his XU1.

Already car problems became apparent.

Garry Mecak’s Escort TC caught fire when Bob Holden was attempting to help free a carburetor float level which

had stuck; quick action by the fire crew at the start line doused the flames. Holden was injured but he managed

to fix the problem!

Mal McPherson's Renault Gordini 8 differential seized on his practice run, and although this put him back into

last position, he stayed with the event to finish a creditable 15th place; whilst Fran Caldwell’s Morris Cooper S

broke its steering on the way to the hillclimb, but caught up with the event at Oran Park.

Oran Park Practice

From Silverdale the field headed to Oran Park for practice, as racing here was part of a large Australian Touring

Car Championship race meeting to be conducted the next day.

Few in the field, consisting primarily of rally drivers, had ever raced before but there was to be some fine efforts

recorded with drivers fighting huge amounts of understeer!

Division Two – Sunday 8 August – Sydney to Tamworth

Oran Park Raceway

After overnighting near Roselands, the second day saw the competitors contest four races at Oran Park, with

the field split into Group A (19 cars) and Group B (17 cars) for two races for each Group.

Start of a Group B Race at Oran Park Raceway

11

Progressive results after Oran Park:

Colin Bond 0, David McKay 19, Stewart McLeod 35, Kevin Bartlett and Mick Brown 40, Ian Inglis 43.

All these cars were rally cars, not race cars! Paul Older’s BMW 2002 and Lionel Williams (LPG Holden Monaro) head

the pack through the Oran Park esses before a reported record crowd who went to see a gigantic

tussle between Bob Jane (7-litre Chev Camaro) and Allan Moffat (Trans-Am Mustang). Jane won the 45 lap race by 6/10th of a second!

In Group A, Bond won the first race (6 laps) by a considerable margin, with a battle being waged for second place

between Bartlett, Inglis, Holden and McLeod. McKay had a bad start and worked his way through this battling group

one by one to take Bartlett on the last lap. The final order was Bond 5:45:03, McKay 5:56:06, Bartlett 5:59:06, then

Inglis, Holden, McLeod, Brown, Watson, Murry and Older.

Bob Holden’s Escort’s clutch failed as he left the start line in his first race (which he finished) and the pressure plate

disintegrated as he crossed the finish line, smashing much of the gearbox and bell-housing and he determined that

the points to be lost in replacing it was not worth the effort and he retired from the event.

Bond won the second 6 lap race 5:46:04, followed by McKay 5:58:05 Bartlett 5:56:05 was third, then Inglis, Brown,

McLeod, Watson and Murray.

Kevin Bartlett takes the Ford Capri V6 to third place in both Group A races at Oran Park

In Group B, Garry Mecak won the first race (6 laps) from Brenda Haigh, then followed Keith Goodall: Mecak 6:19:03,

Haigh 6:22:00, Goodall 6:22:06.

In the second race (also 6 laps) Goodall took the honors followed by Mecak and Haigh; Goodall 6:17:04, Mecak

6:17:09, Haigh 6:23:00

Road sections took the cars north to Tamworth for the Sunday night stop, travelling via Newcastle, Maitland and

Singleton.

Progressive results on arrival at Grafton:

Colin Bond 10, David McKay 29, Stewart McLeod 45, Ian Inglis 53, Bon Watson 58

Division Three - Monday 9 August – Tamworth to Muwillumbah via Grafton Heads

Rally Sections

On Monday morning the field contested a couple of short rally sections, run over twisting dirt roads between

Tamworth and Grafton and these sections demonstrated that the Alfa Romeo had insufficient ground clearance

as it dragged along on its sump guard.

These sections were quite tame compared to what lay ahead in the event. On one section there was a creek crossing

where the Capri of Keran/Bartlett managed to get water in the distributor which cost the crew four minutes. The

Peugeot of Brian Amey/Brian Young lost 16 minutes when the starter motor failed in the middle of a creek, whilst

Lionel Williams in the gas-powered Monaro found that gas lines were freezing at high speed and he lost points for late

arrival.

Brian Amey 1961 Peugeot 403B

A short six-mile (10 kilometre) section near Grafton cost all competitors points, with Bond dropping 10 points, which

meant his rivals lost a lot more!!

Grafton Hillclimb

Then to the Grafton Hillclimb, where the crews competed in a night meeting, despite the cold atmosphere and

before a rather large crowd. Bond (the only driver to have previously competed at the hillclimb) once again led

the way but Roger Bonhomme (Renault Gordini 8), Bob Inglis (Ford Escort TC) and Bob Watson were only a

few split-seconds behind, followed by Kevin Bartlett and Stewart McLeod.

Doug Chivas (Mitsubishi Colt Galant) blew an oil seal on his last run up the hill and spread oil over the track. The

next two runners, Paul Older (BMW 2002) and Lionel Williams (Holden Monaro GTS, running on LPG) spun

wildly, much to the delight of the onlookers.

Jon Ivey rolled his Cooper S but there were no injuries and nothing seriously wrong with the car which was soon back

in action.

Grafton to Murwillumbah – Rally Sections

From Grafton the course continued north to rest overnight at Murwillumbah. Two rally sections were conducted along

the way and Bob Watson’s R12 Gordini showed it would be a force to be reckoned with by being fastest on both

sections, followed by Bond, Chivas, Older, Bonhomme, McKay and Keran.

13

Progressive results at Murwillumbah were:

Bond 70 pts, McKay 103, Watson 112, Bartlett 134, Inglis 147, McLeod 150.

Progressive Results after Surfers Paradise

Bond 94 pts, McKay 103, Bartlett 287, Inglis 296, Watson 308, McLeod 319.

David McKay/Robin Sharpley on the night rally section Grafton to Murwillumbah

In the thick, swirling foggy conditions in the dark over the twisting roads through banana plantations, Keith and Kevin

Goodall misjudged a corner in their big Ford Falcon GTHO and flipped over an edge, sliding down a 100 foot

embankment on its roof. It took four hours with a lot of assistance to get back onto the road but while they could repair

the car, they were well over their late time limit and forced out of the event.

Division Four – Tuesday 10 August – Murwillumbah to Brisbane

Surfers Paradise International Raceway

The bearings of the Fran Caldwell/Jennie Robertson Cooper S packed it in on the way to Tamworth, followed by the

thermostat then it suffered oil pressure failure. A complete motor rebuild took place overnight and non-stop driving

saw them catch up at Surfers Paradise – but they were out of late time.

The field moved onto the Surfers Paradise Raceway for a 30 lap race in a day-long downpour and the field ran

together instead of in two groups as was the case at Oran Park.

Here the rally took on a new outlook. Although continual rain made the track slippery, David McKay in the little

Alfa reveled in the wet conditions and streaked away from Bond to win by 24 seconds, who was the only driver

not to be lapped by McKay; then came Stewart McLeod in third place, after Kevin Bartlett (fourth) had spun off in

the wet and let him through.

McKay 48:06:06, Bond 48:20:08, McLeod 48:17:03, Bartlett 48:40:07.

After Surfers Paradise McKay trailed Bond by 9 points - 94 to 103.

14

Division Five – Wednesday 11 August – Brisbane to Goondiwindi

Lakeside Raceway

The next day saw four races run at the Lakeside circuit (just north of Brisbane) in glorious weather. Following

practice sessions, each Group had 15 lap and 30 lap races

Mike Madden (Holden EH) leads Ted Witherdin (Mini) and Ken Tubman (Austin Kimberley)

McKay took the lead in 1971 Dulux Rally at Lakeside.

In Group A the first race was won by McKay from Bond by 0.06 second, followed by Bartlett, Inglis and McLeod.

In the second race over 30 laps McKay won from Bond by 17 seconds with Bartlett third on the track but he was

penalised 60 seconds for cutting the corners and dropped back to fifth allowing McLeod to be third with Mick

Brown fourth, and Inglis fell well back with mechanical problems with his Escort TC.

15 laps – McKay 17:22:07, Bond 17:23:03, Bartlett 17:45:04, Inglis 17:49:00, McLeod 17:50:05

30 laps – McKay 34:33:00, Bond 34:50:02, McLeod 35:07:00, Brown 35:10:01, Bartlett 36:26:01 (with 60

seconds penalty)

In Group B Garry Mecak won the 15 lap race and Jon Ivey the 30 lap race.

To date the racing had been of a good standard and the experienced racing drivers were complimenting the rally

drivers on their ability to adapt to circuit racing.

Lakeside saw the withdrawal of the winner of the 1953, and first, Redex Trial, Ken Tubman (Austin Kimberley)

with a broken drive shaft, and Lionel Williams who couldn’t get his ex-1968 London to Sydney Marathon gas-

powered Holden Monaro to function properly.

15

At Lakeside raceway – Frank Kilfoyle, David McKay and Colin Bond have a chat

From the Lakeside circuit the course travelled via Kilcoy, Toowoomba to Goondiwindi for the overnight stop.

Division Six – Thursday/Friday 12/13 August – Goondiwindi to Albury

Rally Sections

From Goondiwindi to Lightning Ridge the rally section was a rough one, the route having been changed when

heavy rains made the Gwydir Highway (between Moree and Lightning Ridge) impassable and the re-route was

over back roads. Additionally, smoke from bushfires added to the normal rally hazards of twisting slippery roads and

clouds of thick red dust.

On arrival at Lightning Ridge, what seemed to be the entire population of some 2000 persons turned out to

welcome the competitors. A pleasant sideline to the rally was the inspection of an opal mine. Then the event

continued south through Thursday and over Thursday night, passing through Narromine, West Wyalong, Wagga

Wagga, and then to Albury.

From Lightning Ridge, the 26 cars remaining in the event had a long run over 1000 miles (1600 kilometres)

through Brewarrina, Narromine, Condobolin, West Wyalong and Wagga Wagga to Albury. A couple of rally

sections were cancelled due to the wet conditions but one (9.5 miles – 15km) near West Wyalong was retained

and all cars lost points on the special driving sections and several came to grief!

Mick Brown, running fifth, understeered his Holden Torana XU1 into a tree and this put him out of the event -

very disappointing for him as he was placed in the top ten. Jon Leighton was out when a half-concealed stump

tore the suspension out of the Mini Cooper S. Bob Drane also hit a stump with his Datsun SSS but he repaired

the damage and caught up with the field at Albury within his late time limit.

Colin Bond/George Shepheard in the Holden Torana XU1

Bob Crane (Datsun 1600 SSS) also hit a stump and this caused him to lose considerable time, although he rejoined in

Albury to be in 25th place. By Albury Bond had regained the lead from McKay, but with a mere 21 point advantage.

Bond lost 30 points on this run to Albury, less than anyone else; McKay lost 60 to slip back into second place. Third

was still McLeod followed by Bartlett and then Watson.

The all-female crew of Brenda Haigh/Rosemary White in their XU1 were 15th (1455 points) and the ‘veteran’ cars of

Brian Amey (Peugeot 403B) and Roger Wells (Citroen ID 19) were 20 th (2453 points) and 24th (10295 points) were still in the event.

Division Seven – Saturday 14 August – Albury to Tullamarine (Calder)

Hume Weir Circuit

Kevin Bartlett’s Ford Capri V6 leads the Holden Torana XU1 of Stewart McLeod, who impressed all with his first crack at circuit racing.

Progressive Results on arrival at Albury

Bond 152 pts, McKay 173, McLeod 443, Bartlett 623, Watson 710

17

At Albury the cars lined up for early morning racing at the challenging Hume Weir circuit. As soon as the sun

thawed the thin ice on the track the racing started. In the Group A race David McKay drove his best race of the

event to streak away over the 45 laps, winning from Bond by 21 seconds and lapping all the other cars. Bartlett

finished third, a bare 4 seconds ahead of McLeod then came Inglis and Murray.

Hume Weir - David McKay in the Alfa Romeo won the 45 lap and was

level with Colin Bond on 173 points on the progressive scoreboard

McKay 39:45:01, Bond 40:06:00, Bartlett 41:35:00, McLeod 41:39:00, Inglis 42:06:00.

In the Group B race Charles Lund (Mazda Capella) won from Garry Mecak, with Grahame Ward (Volvo 164)

third - these rally drivers were now running in the top ten positions.

So, an exciting finish loomed with Bond and McKay sharing the lead on 173 points.

Calder Raceway

A transport section took the field from Hume Weir at Wodonga to Calder Raceway where practice for the next

day’s racing took place during the afternoon after the drive from Hume Weir, and the overnight stop was taken at

the Tullamarine Travelodge at Melbourne airport.

Progressive Results after Hume Weir

=1 Bond and McKay 173 pts, McLeod 557, Bartlett 733, Watson 932, Jack Murray (1002), Garry Mecak (1157),

Paul Older (1177), Chas Lund (1194) and Bob Inglis (1195)

Division Eight – Sunday 15 August – Tullamarine (Calder) to Melbourne

Calder Raceway

Racing at the Calder circuit was during the conduct of a meeting featuring Jane, Moffat, ‘Pete’ Geoghegan and

co in a round of the Australian Touring Car Championship and a mammoth crowd was in attendance.

Unfortunately, the Dulux Rally racing was lopsided and tame with Bond winning both Group A races (each 6

laps), McKay finished second in both, with Bartlett third in one race and Bob Inglis third in the other.

Bond leads McKay at Calder, and won both Group A races to set up an

unassailable lead heading into the last night’s rally sections.

Night Rally Sections

So the stage was set for the final night, which included a 400 mile (650km) competitive rally over the finest rally

country - the forestry areas east of Melbourne. Bond, the race and rally genius, started with a 15 point lead after

Calder, and McKay, predominately a circuit racer but certainly no rally novice, was well ahead of McLeod, and it

soon became evident that he knew he could not keep up with Bond and was content to finish and take second

place.

The 24 cars left in the event headed north-east to Mansfield to the first section near Eildon, with Bond and

Watson ‘cleaning’ the 18.3 mile (29km) run. This was followed by another couple of sections, one being 30 miles

(48km), with Bond doing best, followed by McKay and Watson, then McLeod and Keran.

The weather was threatening, with the temperature down to around 32 degrees Fahrenheit (Centigrade had not

been introduced at this time!), and there was a potential of snow falling on the tracks. Additionally, numerous

cars ran out of fuel, or were in danger of doing so unless the drivers backed off.

From Woods Point to Walhalla the course covered a 72 mile (116km) section, and some cars did run out of fuel,

including the Kevin Bartlett/John Keran Capri, Bob Watson and Roger Bonhomme, both in the Gordinis. Once

again Bond was quickest, Bonhomme second, followed by Chivas, Watson, Older and MacPherson. McKay’s

Alfa was having problems in the night, with lights and loss of power and the engine using plenty of oil.

The field struggled into Morwell, for a short break. Then followed a 41 mile (66km) section to Jambuk. Needless

to state, Bond was quickest, although McLeod was equal with him, then came Watson, Chivas, Older and Lund.

A couple of shorter sections saw the night out and the field travelled through Warburton to finish in Melbourne. It

was a tough night’s rallying and certainly many points were lost by the crews. Bond was fastest on the night,

followed by experienced Renault Rally Team drivers Watson, Bonhomme and McPherson, then came Chivas

and Older.

Progressive Results after Calder Raceway

Bond 173 pts, McKay 188, McLeod 602, Bartlett 759, Watson 990, Murray 1074, Inglis 1218

19

Some incidents that happened during this last night were:

Keran/Bartlett ran out of fuel and managed to get some from the unselfish Jensen brothers but it took quite

some time to syphon the fuel from one car to the other (both Ford Capri V6) and thus the Jensen’s lost 55

minutes and Keran 45 minutes;

McLeod’s XU1 had a puncture, broke an accelerator cable, and ran off the road while McLeod was using a hand

throttle through the firewall – all without losing third place;

Bob Watson and Roger Bonhomme ran out of fuel but were rescued by Chas Lund but the Gordinis didn’t run

too well on standard fuel (unlike the Capella) and ‘pinged’ all the way to the next service point;

David McKay’s Alfa was having problems with lighting, the engine fuming and down on power and using a lot of

oil; as the crowded engine compartment did not permit an air cleaner to be fitted to the carburetors the and dust

wore out the piston rings;

Colthup put his Sprinter off the road and lost 10 minutes;

quite a few crews had to skip sections and controls to keep within the late time limit;

McLeod approached a bridge a bit fast and decided that going off the road was better than hitting the bridge rail

and went over a bank and lost 11 minutes;

Roger Bonhomme was third fastest on the night after Bond and Watson, but he started too far down the points

scoreboard to take much advantage of his great drive to gain an outright top ten place (he finished 12th).

So ended one of Australia’s most ambitious motor sport events when the field arrived at Melbourne. The event

was not without its problems but it survived and the organisers learnt much to carry forward to the next Dulux

Rally in the following year.
