[Fot] Off topic, but interesting

That car is a 1987 version before the new tub and the Goodyear tires which made the car over 2 seconds faster. That car was later called "Elvis" and was laterr sold to a fellow in Europe.The car was just fast enough for my tastes. 1988 was better when Geoff was on full time and we won 8 races in a row and 10 out of 13. Yes, just fast enough.

Here is a pic I shot at Riverside's Turn 6 of the Electramotive Nissan. 
EFR is in the car and Brabham was co-driver. I don't recall the year. 
Maybe the same car or a variation thereof. They were great cars and 
indecently fast!
