Re: Furias' First Engine Run

The other thing was both took gold on Debut too if i remember right... Dreadnaught won 1984, then 1985 the super corsair won on debut with Steve Hinton Snr

Super Corsair's first year was 1982 with Jim Maloney and Steve Hinton sharing the duties.

The only 'first year' winners were Slovak in '64 (obviously), Dago Red in '82, Dreadnought in '83, and Stiletto in '84. There was that three-year period where it looked like in order to win you had to build something new....

What's that grey disc behind the prop? Streamlining? Intriguing.
