I remember the car as a kid, i remember the first time i heard it and quickly grabbing at my ears, it was so loud, great find. I also remember another R100 of similar looks that a guy with a Japanese name was driving i dont think it is the same car. Paint was red, green and white.

Dont know of to many R100's that ran as sports sedans but found these photos of an R100.....maybe the same car. What i did notice on all the photos above is how the guards have changed.

From memory that was a potent bit of gear !! Looking at the times against the sale price that a hell of a buy !

Good luck with it R100.

Wow, 52's at Amaroo in a car that short..... :o The driver would have "had a bit on" peeling off those times!. The bloke should be driving in F1 I reckon........

52's seemed to be the going pace for the small high powered rotors. Jamie miller ( Escort) Ric Shaw ( rx3) Joe said ( Fiat )


Speaking of the Jamie miller escort......... what happened to it ? Last i heard it found a home at Byron Bay about 6-7 years ago. Another weapon fallen by the wayside?
