Leigh, he wasn't looking the other way for long !
The +8s were competing for the Eau Rouge Trophy (a special class within the Spa 6 Hours) and Keith/Billy/Christian have always finished on the podium including visits to the top step. This year the Morgans were up against two very quick Datsun 240Zs, and sadly they showed us the way home finishing 1st and 2nd. Keith was 3rd and Malcolm 4th.
We (Paul/Wells/Bourne) suffered a prolonged stop in the pits with alternator problems which required a replacement, the job was complicated by a fractured alternator bracket. Later in the race Ahlers/Bellinger/Bock also had alternator maladies but Brett/Billy were able to sort them out more quickly.
I don't have any results but understand the Emberson/Wykeham/Horseman SLR got hit at the back and eventually succumbed to engine problems.
Sorry I don't have any details about the Barry Sidery Smith race with the other Morgans, or the Sunday race featuring the Orebi Gann/Bell and Ahlers/Bellinger SLRs.
