ACT International Rally History

[Alpine]

Rallly fans, especially old ones!!
Nostalgia has lead me to look into our colourful international event history, especially with recent clouds gathering over ROC's future. I'm sure it'll survive, but a few weeks ago on ABC 2's Late Night Legends, up came the '79 Castrol- what a blast of memories. Then there's the tarmac stages later, in Wanniassa!!
I'd like to know if anyone's done a historical article or kept records of these events?
I'd like to hear from anyone who helped organised the Castrols and Don Capasco, I should be able to contact people I knew from that era too, and compile a decent article.
Whatdya think?

My Dad (Ron) is away at the moment, however if you want to get in touch with him send me a PM and I will give you his details.

He has a lot of stuff at home covering events from the 60's, unfortunately he won't be in Canberra to go through it till June(ish)
