Old Formula One friends and adversaries (from left) Chris Amon, Stirling Moss and Denny Hulme met at Auckland’s Motor Expo on the Toyota New Zealand, Ltd, stand last week. They chatted about the times when they raced against each other. One of the world’s advanced concept cars, the Toyota FXV, which had reached New Zealand less than 24 hours before Expo was opened to the media, formed a dramatic backdrop. Amon, a farmer and engineering consultant to Toyota New Zealand, first met and raced against Moss at Ardmore in 1962 when he was just 17 years old. Hulme, who became the world Formula One champion at the age of 31 in 1967 is still very active in Group A touring car racing, while Moss conducts his own promotions business, based in the United Kingdom, and participates in historic car racing when he can spare the time. He won nearly half the races he contested and survived some horrific race crashes. He is now a spritely 58-year-old.
