The Place

As owned today by Mick McGinley, Sean's brother.

Many thanks to Steve for resizing the originals to fit on here

Funny that I didn't recognise it

Possibly because it was always painted red until about ten years ago?

Bill Organ had it in the 70s & early 80s, then Sean Mcginley followed by the Mad Monk and Ron Jones before Mick bought it.

Superb Bob, & very well engineered, sad that not many try something "different" now a days. CR on its way to you.

Thanks Ian, the photos are Mick's, all I did was to post them - let you know when CR arrives. That was a nice piece of engineering, the only weak point is the outrigger bearing on the gearbox drive shaft carrying the clutch, that bearing tends to have a very short life span.

Folks do not try anything 'different' these days because the rules are so restrictive and hidebound but my views are fairly well known on that matter

I believe this was built by Ray Wilson in the early 70's

Probably so John but believed late 60s.

Is it going to make an appearance this year?

Sadly highly doubtful Ian

Think I need to find Mick's phone number again!

Dick,It was CRMC registered and raced by Mick years ago.
