Rory Cull Paint Jobs...
 
Hi again,

If anyone has a picture anywhere kicking about with one of the Rory Cull sunburst style paint jobs from the early 90s I'd be grateful of a scan of that or a link or something??

Thanks... :thumbsup:

Bugger, I never took pics at the Nats when i raced and he was making the A's continuously. Still what a racer and nice guy.

You may get lucky with Tom or some of the other guys on this sie that have a huge magazine collection, and ask them if they can scan across some pics for you, as it was in the mags quite a lot.

I'd like to find some pics of the shells Jason Varley had, with the flames on(i think). Used to love them

That's a quality find!!

I had forgotten Rory ran a ProCat, that's donkeys ago...

Anyone found a pic of his sunburst Yokomo or RC10 at all??? :woot: :thumbsup:

Looking at the old pics I went looking in the garage for something I'd forgotten I still had kicking around and pulled out this :)

Even the shocks still feel alright after about ten years in a box :lol:

Very retro...

That's a "Kevin Moore" shell...

Anyone with Rory's sunburst paint job?????????

Crazy L 19-10-2008 08:58 AM

Wow, retro a go-go. It's kinda got me thinking, who's got Jamie Booths old Manta Ray with the Madcap shell on? Maybe Kevin Moores Predator of the same era as that XX above. Where do you people find these cars, amazing.:thumbsup:

This thread had been dead for 2 years almost and then someone posted what looked like just some random characters and it just seemed a bit weird after so long... I didi find a pic of Rory's car in the end elsewhere :thumbsup:

Yup thats it and the RC10 was exactly the same. Nice find, where did you find it? Looks like Basildon.

Not the best of pictures as his hair is short in this, and Jamie's kindof turned into a hedge and you've gotta ignore Cliff Lett behind and Mike Reedy on the right but here he is........

Cracking picture

GeneralZod 28-11-2011 09:06 PM

I can't remember now to be honest, the original post was waaaaaaay back in April 2008!!

bigred5765 28-11-2011 10:08 PM

Mark yes it looks pink to me :lol:

And what would you say Basildon too? If so that makes it 93 yes? And if it is that would be a 93 WCS :woot: I might need a new paint job.

Welshy40 06-09-2015 09:23 AM

Yup think 93 wc and piccy wasnt the warm ups as when we attended the warm ups the track flooded and a quick fix was used, tiny gravel pieces put ontop so you couldnt really get a good set up for the worlds event as the surface was different, plus even with the gravel was still with a water surface.

Stretch 06-09-2015 05:10 PM

Luxury! When it rained at Romsey we used a petrol powered pump to clear the water from the track.

Young people today…

Welshy40 06-09-2015 09:15 PM

Yup, true there.

Still miss race events in rain, Merthyr was the best, lost pole in the third round when it was dry, then it rained heavily so much so that the race got stopped until it calmed down, two hours later and an inch of water floating above the track the last round started and I took pole. Car was a mud brick after that but did like those conditions.

I have also had that mud brick experiance.....

it actually was in the swedish "stockcup" and due to rules regarding lightweight materials being expensive the cars had to be heavier than normal so i added an wrench to my car to get up the weight.

After the first round of qualification i put the car on an scale and noticed that it was so much dirt on it so i weighed way to much i took the wrench out and cleaned the car so now the car was under the weight limit.

drove the second round of qualification went fine was really fast heard some complaints about not having an stock motor in it.

took the car to the pit and was about to clean it then the rule guy ( cant find the word for it ) came over and said that they wanted to check my car ok
he looked at the motor everything was fine and then puttedthe car on the scale and it was over the limit by 2 gram lol the amont of dirt was about 120 grams after one qualification.
