Middle East Driver 03-05-2006, 12:53 :help: Someone out there gotta have pics !
EBrennan 03-05-2006, 13:42 Before my time did you try rallypics.org or roydempster.com not sure if John O Neill was at it then but give him a shout anyway.
rallyretro 03-05-2006, 14:42 I have a poster of a Manta that was in Carsport from a round of the NI championship in the early 90's, I will have a look and see who took it. (It may be Stephen Mawhinney though not Emerson)
rallyretro 03-05-2006, 14:44 I know Trevor Foster was one of the photographers taking photos for Carsport of the National championship in that era.
Pierce Doheny Jnr. 03-05-2006, 14:49 I have that poster aswell Fergus, it is Mawhinney.......
Jimmy Page 03-05-2006, 15:49 I have a poster of Emerson going round "Woodchester" on Knockalla, Donegal 1993 in the lovely BP Manta. It was in Carsport at the time.
Did Bill Connolly not have the BP Manta? he was from goresbridge and they own the red mills animal feed business,bought an m3 from Bertie Fisher, BP colours as well

Jimmy Page 03-05-2006, 23:30 Maybe it was 1992 then so, as he wasn't a 00, unlike the pic posted by Martin there. It was the same year as he broke his arm on Hornhead when he got here pulled into a ditch on the driver's side. Think it was 1992 now come to think of it.
When I say a poster - well, a centre page spread type thingy.

Indeed, the same man who brought a bit of bother on himself on the Circuit with the old pacenotes. (Apparently) :whistle:
