WAIMATE “50” ROAD RACE MEETING.—TOP LEFT: The nose of A. F. Moffatt’s very fast Lotus dips under heavy braking as it approaches the corner leading into the hairpin straight at Waimate on Saturday. In the closely-fought sports car race, Moffatt pursued B. Cottle’s beautifully-prepared Lola throughout. TOP RIGHT: Cottle in his Lola. The car went very well to win the sports car event, but caught fire during the main event. BOTTOM LEFT: The first three place-getters in the main event, the Waimate “50”. From left: A. Shelly (Cooper) of Wellington, who came second; J. Palmer (Lotus) Hamilton, who won the event; and R. A. Levis (Cooper) of Putaruru, third. BOTTOM RIGHT: Shelly at the wheel of his Cooper during the main event. He drove very well throughout but the older Cooper could not catch Palmer’s Lotus.
