5 FFers @Wroughton, 1988

Flashback to the Top Gear filming at Wroughton aerodrome, Wiltshire, April 1988. I thought I'd put this photo up here ages ago, but after digging it out of the archives in honour of Tudor Thomas's 65th birthday (December2020) I realised that I haven't. Amazingly, at the time of writing, all five of the people in this photo, taken 32 years ago, are still alive and kicking. Furthermore, they all still have at least one FF and at least two of them have more than one, if not several! From left to right: Tudor Thomas (Difazio CX500 White Eleffant); Mark Crowson (original Quasar); Bob Winsper (was riding my CX500 Flying Banana, and subsequently bought it off me); Royce Creasey (original green Voyager – the nose is just visible) and Chris Baker (VF750 Quasar). The VW van in the background belonged to Pete Lawrence, with which he'd brought his self-built Difazio-steered Delta Talbot 930). PNB
