| Tyrrell 007-1 on Circuit at Killarney Racetrack |
The International Passion
for Speed series was held at Killarney Race Track on 6 and 7 February. Among a
variety of different activities from Classic car shows to high speed demos from
classic LeMans cars, Isle of Man TT motorcycles, Extreme supercars, Grand Prix
cars from 1950’s and 1960’s, Pre ’74 International Sports Prototypes and pre
’74 Trans-Ams and Formula One and F2 high speed demos.
The feature that stood out
the most was the display of the Formula 1 and Formula 2 cars from the
Franschhoek Motor Museum in the pits nearest to the start/finish, when not on
the track.
The 1979 Formula One World
Champion Jody Scheckter’s Tyrrell 007-1 Cosworth V8 that carried the South
African to victory in both the British and Swedish Grands Prix in 1974 appeared
on track for a high speed demo along with Sam Tingle F1 Repco LDS, designed by
South Africa’s Doug Serrurier.
