Product Description
The 1964 Australian Touring Car Championship was contested over a single race staged at the Lakeside circuit in Queensland, Australia, on 26 July 1964. Battling against the more powerful cars of Holden, Jaguar and Ford the two mighty Minis of Brian Foley and Peter Manton finished fourth and fifth overall and 1st and 2nd in their class. Brian Foley started motor racing in the early 1950''s specializing in Austin A30, Austin A40 Farina, Austin Lancer, Austin Healey Sprite marks 1 & 2a and finally the Morris Cooper S. Peter Manton is a highly respected driver and car preparer. During the 1960s and the era of the Neptune, Total and Shell racing teams associated with him, Manton’s cars were the yardstick other Minis were judged by. This special issue twin-pack celebrates the epic battles between two top Australian drivers of the 1960s and their ‘giant-slaying’ Mini Coopers and also marks 50 years since the first Manton & Foley Scalextric Mini Cooper cars were released exclusively for the Australian market.
