Who, what, where & when (07)

[Reynard]

HereÃ*s the next renewal of Who, what, where & when.

The answers for Teaser 6 are as follows:

WHO: Matt Neal
WHAT: Nissan Skyline GT-R (Rimstock Racing)
WHERE: Silverstone Tourist Trophy
WHEN: 1991

Congrats to Stuart for being the first person to solve the complete conundrum!

At the moment, John and Stuart lead the league with 2 correct answers, while Claire and Racefan_uk each have 1.

Will have to keep my neck above the water *AGAIN*, so...

HereÃ*s another one - a tin-top this time... Again, the clues are all there if you know where to look and what's going on. Remember ñ I will need those four pieces of information from you:

WHO: driver name (bonus if you get the passenger!)
WHAT: car
WHERE: circuit & event
WHEN: the year the action took place

So hereÃ*s the next little teaser ñ good luck!

[speedy]

Will Hoy
Silverstone RallySprint (winter event before start of British Rally Championship season)
1998
Ford Escort Maxi
Passenger - at a guess, Gwyndaf Evans?

[John]

I'd agree with that :

Feb 1998
Silverstone Rally Sprint
Will Hoy (Who won the celeb TV challenge!!) :)
Ford Escort (reg no P519 OVW!!!) ;)

Passenger - pass

[Reynard]

You are both correct with the main question, but the win goes to Speedy for getting the answer first - so much for me trying to be smart by posting the new one at half one in the morning...

confirmation of the answer:

WHO: Will Hoy
WHAT: Ford Escort
WHERE: Silverstone Rallysprint
WHEN: 1998

So the league table for WWW&W looks like this:

1= John & Stuart (2)
3= Racefan_UK, Claire & Speedy (1)

The next renewal of WWW&W will be posted later today - please bear with me as I have to go to a meeting first. In the mean time, here's a few clues to the passenger just to jog the memory...

1) I am a touring car driver, but not current
2) I started off my career by winning a FF1600 car as a prize in Autosport
3) I spent most of my career driving in sports prototypes for Ford, Aston Martin (Nimrod) and Porsche

Tiff Needell? I'm pretty sure he won a FF car in an Autosport competition.

[Reynard]

it is Tiff Needell.

Yes, he did win a Lotus FF1600 in the Autosport competition, but am not sure whether the prize was just the car or whether it included preparation/running costs as well. I seem to remember he was reunited with the car a couple of years ago and did a track test in it.
