Gordon Kirby and I were standing next to our buddy Paul Webb at that moment.
GK turned to me and said something like "I think KK just hit the fence."
PW said "I think I got it on film."

Desire Wilson Phoenix 1986
In those days it was called the ARS (American Racing Series).
I have no further info for this pic.
You are very welcome.
I wish I had the hours to devote to getting more of my images scanned and uploaded. I still have nearly 70k images I want to go through.
If so, there may be pics of it in here already.

Indeed Craig did drive the #25 T460 a few times during the '76 season. He also drove a Ralt RT-1 that season.
Bertil Roos was his teammate that year and he too drove a T460 on occasion.

Unfortunately it will be some time before I can get to the '81 season. I work full time and in my spare time I'm trying to accommodate those that have requested images from the '70s.

Thank you.
Since I have to work in the 8-5 world weekdays, weekends are the only time when I can get to images.
I hope to have some more scanned and uploaded this weekend.
I reckon I have pics of him in the T 460. Won't be able to get into my archives to look until this weekend at the earliest.

Saw your pm. I may, stress may, have pics of the car but it will be some time before I can get into my archives to check.

I may well have pics of both cars.

In '76 I was covering the Atlantic series for Autoweek, not getting expenses for travel, so I grabbed transportation wherever I could.
Part of my travel that year was provided by McCall, as I...
So, Mr. Dwornik, it appears that since the crazy days of the Atlantic series in the '70s a few more of your screws have become untightened in your oldagehood.

McCall also made a small number of Tui BH-2 Atlantic cars.
These are the ones that I have in my Atlantic set. Someday when I get more time in my life I will be adding more.,,,

No promises, but I may have a decent image or two of H2 in that car from '76.

Someday, not soon obviously, you'll look back on this and be able to laugh about it.
